After 24 hours of release, Apple announced that there were over one million downloads. First launched on January 6, 2011, as part of the free Mac OS X 10.6.6 update for all current Snow Leopard users, Apple began accepting app submissions from registered developers on November 3, 2010, in preparation for its launch. The platform was announced on October 20, 2010, at Apple's "Back to the Mac" event. There aren't any currently, so there is nothing displayed in the Terminal.The App Store is macOS's digital distribution platform for macOS apps, created and maintained by Apple Inc. For example, you could type "ls Downloads/Examples/Example1/Test" to list the files inside the "Test" folder. This is infinitely extensible, meaning that you can dig as deep as you want by utilizing the "/". Looking at the Finder window shows you that they are the same thing. For example "ls Downloads/Examples" will list the contents of the "Examples" folder that is inside the "Downloads folder" I can even dig deeper by using the "/" and typing a folder inside the Downloads directory. Just to continue to help you visualize this, I'll open the Downloads folder in Finder. This time, when I press Enter, we see the contents of the Downloads folder. In this case, the command is "ls Downloads". To do this, we simply type the "ls" command, followed by the directory whose contents we want to list. Let's view the files and folders inside the "Downloads" directory, while staying in our current directory. One will keep us in the current working directory, while the second will actually move us into the other directory before we list the files. Now, let's say we want to see the files and directories inside one of the directories listed here. So, when I type "ls" and press "Enter" we see the same folders that we do in the Finder window. To see them in the terminal, you use the "ls" command, which is used to list files and directories. In the Finder window, we see the contents of the "/Users/ModulesUnraveled" directory. Listing files and folders in the current directory This will make it easier to follow along throughout the series. I'll also split the screen so that the terminal is on the left and the Finder window is on the right. Let's go to this directory in Finder to follow along. If I type it and press Enter, the result is "/Users/ModulesUnraveled". There may come a time when you don't know which directory you are currenly in. Windows will commonly use ">".) Seeing which directory you're currently in (Some systems use a symbol other than the "$" including "%" or "#". Finally we'll see "ModulesUnraveled" which is my user name, and a "$" which is the prompt that indicates it is ready for me to type my command. You'll see "Brians-MacBook-Air" which is my computer name, followed by a colon and then a "~" (which indicates the user home directory) and that is the directory I am currently in. Once it's opened you'll see the last login time on the first line, while the second line shows information about my computer, what folder I'm in and who I'm logged in as. The first thing we need to do is open up our terminal. In this video we'll use the "pwd" command to see what directory we are in, and the "ls" command to list the files that are in our current directory.
