- Now it's time to work on our shell access.

So what I've always done prior to this video

is use just the built-in terminal that comes with Mac OSX,

and I kind of don't need very much more than that

I just type basic Git commands or node commands in there,

there is a particular application called iTerm.

And this is a Mac OSX terminal replacement.

There are equivalent terminal replacements for Windows.

I'll try to include some links in the video description

And you can see that it has a lot of extra features.

I believe it's, I don't know if it's open source.

it looks like it's licensed under GPL version two.

So I encourage you to kind of click through

But really it's just has a lot of customization

for searching, for hotkeys, for that kind of stuff.

I look over other programmers and I see their console,

And if they use Git, maybe you don't know what Git is,

It says things like you're in a Git repository

and what branch you're in in that repository,

just gives you information as you're going.

So there's many ways to configure your terminal

in terms of styles and transparency and color

Something that I learned about recently is a shell.

When you start a shell it's going to load the PATH

from the configuration files for that shell,

I apologize for this being so Mac OSX specific,

into your actual configuration files by default.

If I go here it just wants me to look at my recent files

So one thing I could do if I'm in the terminal prompt

I type, I can type pwd and I can see, ah,

this is the directory that I'm currently in

That's where all the user configuration stuff for me,

the temporarytrain, that particular login

and it's going to open that directory in the Finder.

But there's all these files that are hidden.

are things that are actually controlling your PATH

because this is broken or that is broken.

So something that you can do is if I just Google

I'm going to see this nice little command here,

There might be a way for me to make this bigger.

I'm not going to worry about that right now.

What I need to do is relaunch the Finder.
