Luke, would be great if you create a series or a video about integration with github and building portfolios for beginners. Your videos are great!

Hey Luke, would you mind please sharing what SQL related extensions you have installed on VS Code? thanks!

Hi Luke. A great video as always. I found this clip as I was finding Anaconda to be too heavy for my labtop. Yet, I found many other Python tutors recommending Anacaconda. I do think neither is perfect or completely bad. Rather, my question is, in 2022,

(1) Speaking from your personal experience, did choosing VS Code over Anaconda by any chance bother you from carrying out your data analyst job at work?

(2) Relatedly, if I do not plan on being a developer (as of yet at least) but would just like to use python for data analytical tasks only, does NOT having Anaconda severely hinders me from picking up Python knowledge?

hi Jupyter notebook keybord shortcuts won't work in Vscode

[VanBlueJr]

How come my VS Code doesn't say Jupyter Server.local like yours does? I selected the python interpreter but thats all I see at the top?

Luke, kindly explain. what if you have already installed python but did not add it to the cmd environments path which means you cannot run python from the cmd. Besides what happens if the jupyter notebook code you run doesn't work as I am experiencing. What could be the reason?

I have installed anaconda & python following your last 3 videos. However the "Python: Create New Blank Jupyter Notebook" option is not showing in the VS Code search bar. May i know what could be the problem? Thanks
