Play button needs Code Runner

Open yesenadam opened this issue 5 years ago • 3 comments

Anyone going through the steps in Getting Started will get to "To run the Hello World program, click Run: Julia File in Terminal play button in the top-right side of the editor." and wonder why they don't have a play button like in the picture. After an hour's googling I realized I needed to install the Code Runner extension, not mentioned in these docs. I wasn't sure exactly how I should change the docs to eliminate this problem.

Also just below that currently it says "To learn more about the Julia language, see Juilalang.org"

Yes... the "Hello World" example does not run smoothly for newbies like me. I had that play button issue and was left wondering where the "Hello" folder came from as well - its creation should be described.

I got your point @yesenadam . @pfitzseb if you don't mind can I work on this issue??

Sure. Take a look at the Documenter.jl docs and open a PR.
