Click on the green Code button.

In the dropdown, you can copy either the HTTPS or SSH link.

1. Windows and MacOS: Copy the HTTPS link (although you can copy the SSH link if you desire).

2. Linux: Copy the SSH link.

   1. If you really want to use HTTPS on Linux, you have to install the Git Credential Manager or create a Personal Access Token on GitHub. How to do this is left as an exercise for you.

If you’re using the SSH link (HTTPS link users skip this):

1. If you haven’t already, create a new SSH key and add it to your GitHub account:

   1. https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/connecting-to-github-with-ssh/generating-a-new-ssh-key-and-adding-it-to-the-ssh-agent

   2. If you add a password to your SSH key, you will have to type it in every time you use Git to interact with GitHub (e.g. cloning, pulling, pushing). You can always delete and create a new SSH key if you change your mind later.

   3. https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/connecting-to-github-with-ssh/adding-a-new-ssh-key-to-your-github-account

Pick a parent directory to clone (download the code) into.

1. Example: Cloning in C:\Users\Username\ will create a folder and then populate it: C:\Users\Username\computer-vision-python\[files]

Open the console in the parent directory.

1. Windows: Command prompt or Powershell.

2. Linux and MacOS: Terminal.

Clone the repository: git clone [link you copied] , where [link you copied] is the link you copied in step 2.

1. HTTPS link users: You will be prompted to log into your GitHub account. Do so.

Update the repository submodules: git submodule init and git submodule update --remote --merge

Done!
