You can run the examples, or "hack" along with me, but taking notes is perfectly viable as well.
I will use Visual Studio Code for editing and browser sync (requires node.js for installation) to automatically
reload the browser at any code changes. You can re-create my entire development environment in a few minutes before the workshop.
You can follow my code in real time by cloning / pulling: https://github.com/adambien/airhacks
Install a git client to clone the repo and track the progress.
