Interactive code example

Contribute using VSCode codespaces

The VSCode online IDE allows you to make changes, test your changes, and send us Pull Requests without having to install any software on your computer!

• First fork this repository!
• Log into VSCode codespaces with your Azure account and open the forked repository in a new codespace. It will take a few minutes as codespace needs to build mdbook in the process.
• Make changes or add to MD files in VSCode.
• Use Menu | Terminal | Run Task ... | mdbook server to start a local server for your book. You will see it running in the IDE's built-in Terminal.
• Open a browser to access the VSCode server to see the book, and confirm your edits look good.
• Use the Git menu to commit the changes, and use the GitHub menu to send the changes to use via Pull Request.

$ git clone https://github.com/second-state/rust-by-example-ext
