  • I have never used GitHub before, I thought I'm gonna go to the link and click on the green "code" button and click download ZIP that's all. – aymenElf Sep 24 '21 at 19:20

    change the download url : https://github.com/google-developer-training/android-basics-kotlin-words-app/archive/refs/heads/starter.zip – Mark Sep 24 '21 at 19:41
  • Oh now it's working thank you, could you tell me how to do that? Maybe I'll need that for other projects. – aymenElf Sep 24 '21 at 19:45

    copy the download url and edit the last part `https://github.com/.../.../[branch-name].zip` - going forward it would be beneficial to learn some source control (git) and command line basics as it will be helpful (if you don't already know git). – Mark Sep 24 '21 at 19:55
  • Ah for sure I will learn git I wanted to lean it after learning some android basics but I guess I need to learn git before that. Anyway thanks – aymenElf Sep 24 '21 at 20:04
  • it is beneficial, but climb one hill at a time. Focus on Android basics first - start small. – Mark Sep 24 '21 at 20:06
