Atom Text Question

This may be a silly question, but I am currently trying to do the console.log exercises it Atom. With a new file created a can’t seem to have atom spit out a result for the functions I am putting in like the console does a a chrome browser. Is there a setting or something I am missing with this?

Thanks!

Hi @Borucki,

Atom won’t give you the console log output. For the script to actually run, you need to make it run on the browser by opening your myfile.html on the browser. The only way for Atom to get the console logs is to have a local server(node instance) running and the command prompt to be tied to Atom which is not in the scope of this course.

Hope this clears the doubt.

Happy Learning! :smiley:
