Prerequisites

Ensure that:

• JDK 11+ and SBT (Scala Build Tool) are installed on your system.
  • Run java -version to figure out if a JDK has been installed on your system, and if so, what version it is.
  • Run sbt about to verify that SBT is installed on your system.
• Within each assignment (each of which is a discrete directory with its own src/ and project/ folders):
  • project/build.properties's sbt.version key has the correct SBT version (as gleaned from sbt about on your system). When downloaded from Coursera, this was initially 1.2.8, but my system's SBT version is 1.4.6.
  • To execute on VSCode with the Scala Metals plugin, disable the io.get-coursier plugin in project/plugins.sbt.
  • In build.sbt, change the Scala version to match the version of scala on your system (as determined via sbt scalaVersion) OR to whatever is in the warning message is thrown up by VSCode. I changed it from 2.13 to 2.13.4.
