Keyboard & Language Setup Guide for International Users

For the freeCodeCamp Learn Bash Course on GitHub Codespaces

To complete the Learn Bash course successfully, you must be able to type certain characters exactly as Bash and PostgreSQL expect them. Because these characters vary across international keyboards, all learners should temporarily switch to the English (US) keyboard layout for the duration of the course.

Using the US layout ensures:

Commands behave consistently
Symbols appear where the curriculum expects
You avoid errors caused by “dead keys” or remapped characters

At this point, the behaviour of the app should not have changed. The code still fetches a file from the CDN and then processes the retrieved data into JSON. Once that's done, it saves that data into the authorDataArr variable and then calls displayAuthors.

Now that your fCC Authors Page is fully functional, let's refactor it to improve its readability by using async and await instead of the promise chaining method then.

//step-1

In this workshop, you will practice working with the async and await methods by refactoring the fCC Authors Page app you built in a prior workshop.

Recall that in order to use the await operator to wait for a function that returns a Promise, you need to wrap the function call in an async function.

An example of an async function declaration is:

const functionName = async () => {}
