[type this into your terminal]
```
nano config/config.yml
```
I’ m using `nano` here mostly because it’ s simpler than any other editor on Linux.
If you see something like:
```bash
$ nano config/config.yml
zsh: command not found: nano
```
You need to install `nano` , which you would do with:
[type this into your terminal]
```
sudo apt install nano
```
You can use any other text editor you wish, provided it saves files as PLAIN TEXT. `vi` , `emacs` , etc.

I’ m using `nano` here simply because it’ s built into OSX. You can use any other text editor you wish, provided it saves files as PLAIN TEXT. BBedit, TextMate, VSCode, etc.
A common mistake is using TextEdit.app, which saves files as RTF by default.

From here on in, when this walkthrough says "open the config file", I mean this `nano` or `notepad` command. **Don't copy the template again** .
