Installing VS Code on Windows

Follow these steps for installation:

1. Open a new PowerShell window in admin mode and execute the following command:

PS> choco install vscode -y

2. Close your PowerShell window and open a new one, to make sure VS Code is in your path.
3. Now navigate to your home directory and create a folder, fundamentals-of-docker; then navigate into this new folder:

PS> mkdir ~\fundamentals-of-docker; cd ~\fundamentals-of-docker

4. Finally open Visual Studio Code from within this folder:

PS> code .

Don't forget the period (.) in the preceding command. VS will start and open the current folder (~\fundamentals-of-docker) as the working folder.
