Safe Space to Practice Code
When I first started to code, I was afraid that I might somehow mess up my computer. So, I did some research and found that the best way to let go of this fear is to create a virtual machine.
Setting up a virtual machine allows you to experiment with whatever you want in whatever operating system you please. In this blog, all of code will be executed on a virtual machine running Ubuntu.
With the ability to access any operating system, including older versions, you can test your code in the target operating system.
This allows for total freedom, but there are some restrictions. Such as, you cannot access your graphics card directly. The virtual machine comes with a virtual graphics card.
In this space, you have free reign with no real consequences.

How do I put a virtual computer inside my real computer? Is it hard?
ReplyDeleteIt' really easy to do that. My next post will cover it.
