## **Chapter 1: Introduction**

This Bash script automates the process of creating a **structured folder system** for a React Course, including:

- **Lectures** (1 through 13), each with a sample `.md` file.
- **Projects** linking back to related lectures.
- **Glossary**, **Code Snippets**, **Debugging**, and **Advanced Topics** folders to keep your notes and references organized.
- A **React Course Index (MOC)** file for easy navigation within Obsidian.

Using this script will save you time and maintain a consistent layout so you can focus on **learning React** instead of file management.

---

## **Chapter 2: Requirements & Prerequisites**

- **Bash Environment**: Ensure you have Bash 3+ installed.
\- Most Linux and macOS systems come with it.
\- On Windows, use [Git Bash](https://gitforwindows.org/) or the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL).
- **Obsidian**: Not strictly required for running the script, but highly recommended for the best note-taking experience. Download it from [Obsidian.md](https://obsidian.md).

---

## **Chapter 3: Script Overview**

1. **Creates a Root Folder** named `React_Course_Vault`.
2. **Generates Subfolders**:
- **Lectures** (1–13)
- **Projects**, **Glossary**, **Code Snippets**, **Debugging**, **Advanced Topics**
3. **Populates Sample Notes**:
- Each **Lecture** folder has a `.md` file with placeholders for summary, key concepts, code examples, and related topics.
- **Projects** folders each contain a `README.md` linking back to the relevant lecture.
- **Glossary**, **Code Snippets**, **Debugging**, **Advanced Topics** have starter `.md` files.
4. **Index (MOC) File**: A master list (`React Course Index.md`) linking everything for quick reference.

---

## **Chapter 4: How to Use**

1. **Download/Copy** the script (e.g., `setup_react_vault.sh`) into a local directory.
2. **Make Executable**:

```bash
chmod +x setup_react_vault.sh
```

3. **Run** the script:

```bash
bash ./setup_react_vault.sh
```

> On some systems, running `./setup_react_vault.sh` alone may default to `sh`—using `bash` ensures compatibility.
4. **Open** the generated folder **`React_Course_Vault`** to explore your newly created structure.

---

## **Chapter 5: Importing into Obsidian**

1. **Launch Obsidian** and select **Open folder as vault**.
2. **Navigate** to the `React_Course_Vault` folder.
3. **Enjoy** your structured React Course environment! You’ll see:
- **Lectures** (1 through 13) with placeholders.
- **Projects**, **Glossary**, **Code Snippets**, **Debugging**, **Advanced Topics**.
- A convenient **`React Course Index.md`** to quickly find notes.

## **Chapter 7: Customization**

- **Rename Folders** to suit your course or preference.
- **Add/Remove Lectures** by adjusting the script and deleting or inserting files.
- **Expand Content**: Fill in placeholders with your own notes, code examples, or screenshots.
- **Tweak the Index**: Link additional resources or external documentation.

---

## **Chapter 8: Next Steps in Obsidian**

1. **Linking Notes**: Use `[[Double Brackets]]` to easily connect lectures, glossary terms, etc.
2. **Tagging**: Add `#React`, `#Hooks`, or `#Projects` in your notes for quick search.
3. **Install Plugins**:
- **Templater** for faster, more consistent note-taking.
- **(Optional) Another recommended plugin** for advanced note management—e.g., **"Canvas"** for a visual overview.
4. **Capture Screens**: Make sure to **add screenshots** of your work or code snippets to enhance your learning and documentation.

---

## **Chapter 9: Conclusion**

You now have a **powerful, automated setup** to kick-start your React learning or teaching in Obsidian.

---

## **Next Steps — To-Do List**

- **Add Screen Captures**: Document your folder structure and lectures visually.
- **Install Another Plugin**: **Canvas** or a similar plugin to map out React concepts visually.

**Happy Learning & Note-Taking!**
