00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:01,915
All right, let's dive into something
2
00:00:01,915 --> 00:00:04,363
that, let's be honest, can feel a little
3
00:00:04,363 --> 00:00:06,504
intimidating for a lot of designers. The
4
00:00:06,504 --> 00:00:08,340
whole technical setup for the Whiteboard
5
00:00:08,340 --> 00:00:10,481
Design Studio course, we're going to go
6
00:00:10,481 --> 00:00:13,234
on a little journey here and the goal is
7
00:00:13,234 --> 00:00:15,681
to take that feeling of, uh, this is
8
00:00:15,681 --> 00:00:18,129
complicated and turn it into, OK, I got
9
00:00:18,129 --> 00:00:20,647
this. Does this sound at all familiar?I
10
00:00:20,647 --> 00:00:22,861
bet it does. This is probably the number
11
00:00:22,861 --> 00:00:24,798
one thing we hear from amazing designers
12
00:00:24,798 --> 00:00:27,012
who are totally ready to grow, but they
13
00:00:27,012 --> 00:00:29,226
feel like the tools are this giant wall
14
00:00:29,226 --> 00:00:31,717
in front of them. If that's you, I just
15
00:00:31,717 --> 00:00:34,485
want you to know you are so not alone. In
16
00:00:34,485 --> 00:00:36,975
fact, this is the perfect place for us to
17
00:00:36,975 --> 00:00:38,913
start. And here's the absolute truth. The
18
00:00:38,913 --> 00:00:41,559
thing you have to keep in mind?Every
19
00:00:41,559 --> 00:00:43,656
single expert you admire, every designer
20
00:00:43,656 --> 00:00:46,452
who seems to have it all figured out.
21
00:00:46,452 --> 00:00:48,549
They all started right here, uncertain,
22
00:00:48,549 --> 00:00:50,995
maybe a little nervous, wondering if they
23
00:00:50,995 --> 00:00:53,791
could really get the hang of it. Well,
24
00:00:53,791 --> 00:00:56,587
they did, and you will too. So let's
25
00:00:56,587 --> 00:00:59,033
just face that technical hurdle head on.
26
00:00:59,033 --> 00:01:01,615
Our first mission is super simple. We're
27
00:01:01,615 --> 00:01:03,819
going to demystify all these tools. We're
28
00:01:03,819 --> 00:01:06,024
going to take that scary sounding jargon
29
00:01:06,024 --> 00:01:08,228
and justice, turn it into ideas that
30
00:01:08,228 --> 00:01:10,433
actually make sense. First U Git and
31
00:01:10,433 --> 00:01:12,952
GitHub, people get these mixed U all the
32
00:01:12,952 --> 00:01:15,157
time. Are they the same thing? Not
33
00:01:15,157 --> 00:01:17,991
really. And the best way to get it is
34
00:01:17,991 --> 00:01:20,510
with this analogy. Think of Git as the
35
00:01:20,510 --> 00:01:22,566
engine. It's the powerful. Thing working
36
00:01:22,566 --> 00:01:25,071
behind the scenes, keeping track of every
37
00:01:25,071 --> 00:01:27,576
single change you make. And GitHub, well,
38
00:01:27,576 --> 00:01:30,081
GitHub is the car. It's the sleek,
39
00:01:30,081 --> 00:01:31,870
user-friendly website where you actually
40
00:01:31,870 --> 00:01:34,733
store and share your project. O what is
41
00:01:34,733 --> 00:01:36,880
GitHub really? Let's just forget the
42
00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:39,027
whole intimidating tech reputation for a
43
00:01:39,027 --> 00:01:41,532
second. At its heart, it's basically just
44
00:01:41,532 --> 00:01:43,758
cloud. Storage, but with a superpower and
45
00:01:43,758 --> 00:01:45,856
that superpower is a time machine Every
46
00:01:45,856 --> 00:01:48,254
time you save your work, it doesn't just
47
00:01:48,254 --> 00:01:50,651
back it U, it creates a specific version
48
00:01:50,651 --> 00:01:53,349
you can go back to at anytime It's like
49
00:01:53,349 --> 00:01:55,447
the ultimate safety net for your entire
50
00:01:55,447 --> 00:01:57,844
design process. OK, so now we know what
51
00:01:57,844 --> 00:02:00,542
it is let's take that first big step we
52
00:02:00,542 --> 00:02:02,340
are going to create your professional.
53
00:02:02,420 --> 00:02:04,604
Home on the Internet your very first
54
00:02:04,604 --> 00:02:07,100
GitHub repository and you are going to be
55
00:02:07,100 --> 00:02:09,284
amazed at how simple this is. Seriously,
56
00:02:09,284 --> 00:02:12,092
you just go to github.com & up. You know,
57
00:02:12,092 --> 00:02:14,276
just like you would for any other
58
00:02:14,276 --> 00:02:17,084
website. A little pro tip, try to pick a
59
00:02:17,084 --> 00:02:18,332
professional sounding username because
60
00:02:18,332 --> 00:02:20,516
you might end up sharing this with
61
00:02:20,516 --> 00:02:22,700
clients one day. You verify your e-mail.
62
00:02:22,920 --> 00:02:24,768
And, well, that's literally it. And
63
00:02:24,768 --> 00:02:26,924
justice like that, you've done it. No,
64
00:02:26,924 --> 00:02:29,388
really, take a second and let that sink
65
00:02:29,388 --> 00:02:31,544
in. That thing that might have seemed
66
00:02:31,544 --> 00:02:33,700
kind of complicated a few minutes ago,
67
00:02:33,700 --> 00:02:36,164
you just did it. That feeling of progress
68
00:02:36,164 --> 00:02:38,320
right there. We're going to keep building
69
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:40,784
on that. Now, when you create your first
70
00:02:40,784 --> 00:02:42,632
project folder, they call it a
71
00:02:42,632 --> 00:02:44,772
repository. You have a little choice to
72
00:02:44,772 --> 00:02:47,002
make. You can have a single repo where
73
00:02:47,002 --> 00:02:48,953
all your design specs and maybe some
74
00:02:48,953 --> 00:02:50,905
future code live together, which by the
75
00:02:50,905 --> 00:02:52,856
way, is perfect for beginners. Or you
76
00:02:52,856 --> 00:02:54,528
could have separate repos for everything,
77
00:02:54,528 --> 00:02:56,758
which is more of a big corporate thing
78
00:02:56,758 --> 00:02:58,709
for this course. Trust me, we're going
79
00:02:58,709 --> 00:03:00,660
with the single repo. It keeps everything
80
00:03:00,660 --> 00:03:02,890
simple and all in one place. So once
81
00:03:02,890 --> 00:03:04,563
you've named your repository and you
82
00:03:04,563 --> 00:03:06,867
click that. The right button boom, that's
83
00:03:06,867 --> 00:03:09,551
it. You are now officially a GitHub user.
84
00:03:09,551 --> 00:03:11,900
You have a professional space to house
85
00:03:11,900 --> 00:03:14,248
your work. Feels pretty good, right? OK,
86
00:03:14,248 --> 00:03:16,597
now let's build the workshop where you'll
87
00:03:16,597 --> 00:03:18,945
actually do the designing All right, we
88
00:03:18,945 --> 00:03:21,629
have our cloud storage all set U Now
89
00:03:21,629 --> 00:03:23,978
it's time to build your local workshop
90
00:03:23,978 --> 00:03:26,050
we're going to install. Something called
91
00:03:26,050 --> 00:03:29,020
an IDE, and I promise you it is not
92
00:03:29,020 --> 00:03:30,1000
nearly as complicated as that acronym
93
00:03:30,1000 --> 00:03:33,970
sounds. O what on earth is an IDE? It's
94
00:03:33,970 --> 00:03:36,280
just a fancy acronym for your digital
95
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:38,590
workspace. And here's the best way to
96
00:03:38,590 --> 00:03:40,900
think about it. If Microsoft Word is
97
00:03:40,900 --> 00:03:43,540
where you write documents and IDE is your
98
00:03:43,540 --> 00:03:44,860
workspace for crafting design
99
00:03:44,860 --> 00:03:46,904
specifications for WDS. We highly, highly
100
00:03:46,904 --> 00:03:48,771
recommend an app called Cursor because
101
00:03:48,771 --> 00:03:51,261
it's built for the kind of AI assisted
102
00:03:51,261 --> 00:03:53,750
work we'll be doing, and installing it is
103
00:03:53,750 --> 00:03:55,618
something you've done 1000 times before.
104
00:03:55,618 --> 00:03:57,796
You just download it, click through the
105
00:03:57,796 --> 00:03:59,352
installer like any other application,
106
00:03:59,352 --> 00:04:01,842
pick a light or dark theme, the important
107
00:04:01,842 --> 00:04:04,332
choice, and then you sign in with that
108
00:04:04,332 --> 00:04:06,199
brand new GitHub account you just
109
00:04:06,199 --> 00:04:08,039
created. And that seamlessly connects
110
00:04:08,039 --> 00:04:09,912
your local computer to your cloud
111
00:04:09,912 --> 00:04:12,097
storage. OK, so inside your new IDE,
112
00:04:12,097 --> 00:04:14,282
you're going to find something called a
113
00:04:14,282 --> 00:04:16,468
terminal. And yet, for a lot of
114
00:04:16,468 --> 00:04:18,653
designers, that little black box with the
115
00:04:18,653 --> 00:04:20,526
blinking cursor looks pretty scary. It
116
00:04:20,526 --> 00:04:23,336
feels like you need to be some kind of
117
00:04:23,336 --> 00:04:25,521
coding genius just to touch it. But
118
00:04:25,521 --> 00:04:28,061
here's the secret you. Do not need to
119
00:04:28,061 --> 00:04:30,197
learn some new complex language for this
120
00:04:30,197 --> 00:04:32,333
entire course. You are almost always just
121
00:04:32,333 --> 00:04:34,774
going to be copying commands that we give
122
00:04:34,774 --> 00:04:36,910
you and pasting them into the terminal.
123
00:04:36,910 --> 00:04:39,351
That's it. It's just another way to talk
124
00:04:39,351 --> 00:04:41,182
to your computer typing instead of
125
00:04:41,182 --> 00:04:43,318
clicking. And now for the magic trick.
126
00:04:43,318 --> 00:04:45,759
We've got our home in the cloud on
127
00:04:45,759 --> 00:04:47,971
GitHub, and we've got our workshop. On
128
00:04:47,971 --> 00:04:50,219
our computer, the next step is to connect
129
00:04:50,219 --> 00:04:52,748
them. We're going to bring a copy of your
130
00:04:52,748 --> 00:04:54,996
roject home. We do this with a process
131
00:04:54,996 --> 00:04:56,963
called cloning, and all that really means
132
00:04:56,963 --> 00:04:59,491
is making a local copy of your project on
133
00:04:59,491 --> 00:05:01,177
your computer that stays perfectly In
134
00:05:01,177 --> 00:05:03,425
Sync with what's on GitHub. You can think
135
00:05:03,425 --> 00:05:05,673
of it exactly like Dropbox sync, but with
136
00:05:05,673 --> 00:05:07,359
that super powerful version history that
137
00:05:07,359 --> 00:05:09,471
time. Machine built right in and the
138
00:05:09,471 --> 00:05:11,819
process is just so simple. You copy the
139
00:05:11,819 --> 00:05:14,168
URL from your GitHub page, you open U
140
00:05:14,168 --> 00:05:16,516
that terminal in your IDE and you just
141
00:05:16,516 --> 00:05:18,864
type git clone and then paste the link.
142
00:05:18,864 --> 00:05:21,506
But now check out Step 4. This is the
143
00:05:21,506 --> 00:05:23,854
really cool part. If you don't happen to
144
00:05:23,854 --> 00:05:26,202
have git installed yet, your IDE is smart
145
00:05:26,202 --> 00:05:28,904
enough to see that it'll. Pop up and ask
146
00:05:28,904 --> 00:05:31,501
if you want to install it, you click 1
147
00:05:31,501 --> 00:05:33,521
button and it does everything for you.
148
00:05:33,521 --> 00:05:36,407
And just like that get us set U OK? With
149
00:05:36,407 --> 00:05:38,427
all the tools locked and loaded, we've
150
00:05:38,427 --> 00:05:40,736
made it to the final and honestly the
151
00:05:40,736 --> 00:05:42,756
most exciting part of this whole setup.
152
00:05:42,756 --> 00:05:45,064
It's time to bring in the White Port
153
00:05:45,064 --> 00:05:46,796
Design Studio methodology and meet your
154
00:05:46,796 --> 00:05:49,268
personal AI guide, Mimir. First, you'll
155
00:05:49,268 --> 00:05:51,571
create a special folder called Docs, and
156
00:05:51,571 --> 00:05:54,533
what's so cool about this is it lays out
157
00:05:54,533 --> 00:05:56,836
the entire WDC process for you. These
158
00:05:56,836 --> 00:05:58,810
eight folders aren't just random names,
159
00:05:58,810 --> 00:06:00,785
they are the complete battle tested
160
00:06:00,785 --> 00:06:02,759
design methodology that's going to guide
161
00:06:02,759 --> 00:06:05,720
you all the way from the first idea to
162
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:07,695
the final delivery. This folder becomes
163
00:06:07,695 --> 00:06:10,110
the single source of truth. For your
164
00:06:10,110 --> 00:06:12,558
entire project and now you meet your
165
00:06:12,558 --> 00:06:15,007
guide. Mimir is the AI orchestrator for
166
00:06:15,007 --> 00:06:17,806
WDS. And what this means is that from
167
00:06:17,806 --> 00:06:20,255
this moment forward, you are never alone.
168
00:06:20,255 --> 00:06:22,703
Anytime you feel stuck, anytime you have
169
00:06:22,703 --> 00:06:25,502
a question or you just need a little
170
00:06:25,502 --> 00:06:27,951
direction, you just type at WD Schmear
171
00:06:27,951 --> 00:06:30,715
right there in your IDE. And your guide
172
00:06:30,715 --> 00:06:33,039
will be there to help you out. And with
173
00:06:33,039 --> 00:06:34,846
that, you're done. The set is complete.
174
00:06:34,846 --> 00:06:37,170
You are ready to go. But hey, before we
175
00:06:37,170 --> 00:06:39,236
move on, let's just hit pause for a
176
00:06:39,236 --> 00:06:41,044
second and look back at everything you
177
00:06:41,044 --> 00:06:43,110
just did. No, seriously, take a moment. A
178
00:06:43,110 --> 00:06:45,175
lot of designers get stuck at this stage
179
00:06:45,175 --> 00:06:47,241
for a long time, but you just pushed
180
00:06:47,241 --> 00:06:49,307
right through it. Do you realize what a
181
00:06:49,307 --> 00:06:52,118
big deal that is?I mean, look
182
00:06:52,118 --> 00:06:54,611
at this list. You created a GitHub
183
00:06:54,611 --> 00:06:56,392
account and a professional repository,
184
00:06:56,392 --> 00:06:58,529
you installed a professional grade IDE,
185
00:06:58,529 --> 00:07:01,022
you actually used the command line to
186
00:07:01,022 --> 00:07:03,159
clone your first project, you integrated
187
00:07:03,159 --> 00:07:05,296
the entire WDS framework, and you
188
00:07:05,296 --> 00:07:07,432
activated your personal AI guide. This
189
00:07:07,432 --> 00:07:09,925
wasn't just about clicking a few buttons,
190
00:07:09,925 --> 00:07:12,712
this was a transformation. You may have
191
00:07:12,712 --> 00:07:14,837
started out feeling like a nervous
192
00:07:14,837 --> 00:07:17,316
beginner, but right now you are a
193
00:07:17,316 --> 00:07:19,795
designer who is equipped with a fully
194
00:07:19,795 --> 00:07:21,566
professional industry standard set. O.
195
00:07:21,566 --> 00:07:23,691
Let's end with this thought. After
196
00:07:23,691 --> 00:07:25,461
everything you just accomplished, there
197
00:07:25,461 --> 00:07:28,294
is no more. I might be able to
198
00:07:28,294 --> 00:07:31,128
do this. You just proved to yourself that
199
00:07:31,128 --> 00:07:33,836
you are able. The setup is done,
200
00:07:33,836 --> 00:07:36,174
your environment is ready, and your guide
201
00:07:36,174 --> 00:07:38,846
me mayor is waiting for you. Welcome to
202
00:07:38,846 --> 00:07:39,180
WDS.
