Example input
Install Pygame:
I have an instruction manual for an app I would like to run in my visual studio code.
The app runs using Python.
Can I upload the instructions and help you install everything needed? (Side note: I am a complete novice and have never coded. Please be as straightforward and helpful as possible)
Bellow is the URL to the app I would like to install:
https://www.pygame.org/wiki/GettingStarted
Example output
I'm glad you provided the URL for the app you'd like to install. It seems you're interested in setting up Pygame, which is a Python library for writing video games. I'll guide you through the installation process step by step. Please make sure you have Python and Visual Studio Code installed as mentioned in my previous response.
Open Visual Studio Code.
Press Ctrl+ to open the terminal inside Visual Studio Code.
Now, you'll need to install the Pygame library using pip, which is the Python package installer. Type the following command in the terminal and press Enter:
Copy code
pip install pygame
This command installs the Pygame library in your Python environment. It may take a few moments to complete.
Once the installation is complete, you can test if Pygame is installed correctly. In the terminal, type the following command and press Enter:
Copy code
python -m pygame.examples.aliens
If the installation was successful, a window should open, displaying a small game demo.
Now, you're ready to start creating your own games using Pygame! Create a new folder where you want to store your project files, and then open that folder in Visual Studio Code by clicking "File" > "Open Folder" in the menu.
Inside the project folder, create a new Python file (e.g., main.py) by right-clicking in the file explorer pane and selecting "New File." You can now start writing your game code using the Pygame library.
