GitHub Codespaces CodeTour Features

I've been testing out VSCode CodeTour in GitHub Codespaces. See previous post for basic functionality.

CodeTour also includes some cool advanced features, including the ability to use 'well-known' commands (below).

I wanted to test the scenario of top level code tour (in one file), which ends by linking to next level code tour (in another file).

Note that the first CodeTour is in the top-level README.md file and the last step in this CodeTour includes a link to a second CodeTour (below).

The syntax I used is shown below:

[Open AWS CodeTour](command:codetour.startTourByTitle?["AWS-tour"])
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

When the student clicks the link at the end of the first CodeTour, the second code page opens and the second CodeTour starts (below).
