Programming source code is not possible without a propper code editor. As it happened, Webstorm is one such editor that offers us a variety of useful features, and fortunately it is free for educational purposes. Doesn't that sound great!

1. Go to the Jetbrains website and log in with your login details. If you do not have yet an account, create one as student, because the licence for students is free. –> As a result you will receive a licence ID.
2. Download the software version for your PC.
3. Start the installation process (as shown in the video instructions). Make sure that you check the box „Add bin folder to the PATH“.
4. Once the installation is complete, start the post-installation steps.
5. Open the command line/terminal on your notebook and connect to the database as shown in the video instructions.
6. Finally, request a response from the database by entering „SELECT sysdate;“. If you have followed all the steps correctly, the database will respond with the current date and time of your PC.
7. If you succeeded, be humble and grateful and help those in need. If not, seek the wisdom of your it-master (teacher).
