This is the repository for the LinkedIn Learning Live Share course. The full course is available from LinkedIn Learning.

Remote work is the new normal for many professionals. Software developers acclimating to this new world of work must grapple with the same challenges facing those in other industries. How do you best approach remote collaboration? How do you remain efficient when your living room is now your office? Cloud-based DevOps tools help remote developers manage their source code and build pipelines, and virtual communication tools help them keep in touch with their coworkers. Developers also need tooling to write, review, and pair with other developers in their IDEs and code editors.

In this course, staff instructors Walt Ritscher and Ray Villalobos dive into one such tool: Microsoft Visual Studio Live Share. This tool—which is integrated in the Visual Studio IDE and Visual Studio Code editor—makes it easy to share, edit, and debug your code without requiring collaborators to install SDKs or clone any repos. Discover how to start a Live Share session, co-debug a project, and more.

The branches are structured to correspond to the videos in the course. The naming convention is chapter#-video#. As an example, the branch named 02-03 corresponds to the second chapter and the third video in that chapter. Some branches will have a beginning state (04-01) and an end state (04-01e). The end state videos use e for "end" and contains the code as it is at the end of the video. The master branch holds the the initial state of the course and is not used for exercises during the course.

To use these exercise files, follow the instructions in the course to learn how to work with GitHub content. For this course the instructor uses Visual Studio 2019, any edition is sufficient (Community, Professional, Enterprise).
