In my opinion, the first use of the ticks can make one's life much easier, but I am not really convinced when it comes to new lines, I think that the standard '\n' is much more readable. Thank you for the tutorial.

Great tutorial! I first didn't see the benefits of this new "backticks" action going on, but now i find it very easy to use. Old habits were hard to break 😂.
BTW, what theme do you use for your VS Code in this vids?
