Downloaded the packages from releases, running both executable at the same time, not sure what's the correct config, but have created a text file with url links in it, was able to login in through the code, but then when you start scrapping it says: Main Exception local variable 'driver' referenced before assignment

Anything you want me to try apart from what you've mentioned in the readme? A little help would be appreciated.

Don't use the releases since I have not updated the releases to the latest version yet.
Clone the repo,
Download the respective Chrome Binary for your operating system from releases section and extract it inside Chrome-bin folder,
Run python chromedriver.py in one terminal
Run python educative_scraper.py in the second terminal
The rest should work fine.
If possible create a video demonstration.

Did that, same issue.
Need help with creating config file, when it's asking for URL, should i be pasting the url for the course or the file path for url containing text file? Tried with both and still have the same issue.
