Instructions

This lab is just about practicing the lab workflow on Learn using the learn CLI.

1. Click on the "Open" link on the lab toolbar above.

After you click on this, your Learn IDE will launch.

2. You should see all of the files associated with this lab in the Learn IDE's file browser on the left pane.

3. In the console on the bottom pane, run the test suite by typing learn and hitting enter. You'll see something similar to:

You can see your test is currently failing, which is fine. We haven't done any work yet, so it makes sense.

The failure reads: Make sure you have added a new file or edited edit-me.txt

4. To pass this lab, make any change to the content of the edit-me.txt file. You can do this by clicking on the name of the file in the file browser in the left pane; its contents will load in the text editor. Type into the text editor to change the contents of the file, then save your changes.

5. Once your local tests are passing, you can submit this lab by running learn submit from your terminal.

You should see this lab pass on Learn.co. Congratulations! You've just solved your first lab.
