trying to learn JavaScript
Your first hurdle will be to figure out how to install VS Code. Double clicking the downloaded .deb file often doesn't work. You'll need to follow the instructions on the official page under "Debian and Ubuntu": https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/setup/linux
Specifically the part about 'sudo apt install {distro}.deb'. The other parts are not needed.
吉祥. Prosperity.
