• Start off by downloading the zipped folder that will be needed for the challenge, challenge.zip. You can click on the folder to download it and it will go to your Downloads folder. If you already have a particular directory created for this challenge and you want this folder to be downloaded there, you could right-click on the folder and copy the link. Following this, use the command wget and the copied link to get this folder downloaded in that directory.
