Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Student 15,928 PointsHow can I work with the project files(compressed) offline using my visual studio code?
I've downloaded the project files and I noticed it is in a zipped folder. I right-clicked on the folder and chose 'open with visual studio code' only for my VS code to open up with 'This file will not be displayed in the editor because it is either binary, very large or uses an unsupported text encoding'. I want to start coding outside Treehouse's workspace as that is not what I'll use to work when I have projects(build a website) to do for a company.

Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Student 15,928 PointsIt's still saying the same thing 'This file will not be displayed in the editor because it is either binary, very large or uses an unsupported text encoding'.
