Thank you. Forked.
In case someone comes across this and doesn't know, "forking" a repo by just clicking that button on github won't preserve your copy if the upstream repo gets taken down. If you're trying to preserve it, make sure you have a copy independent of github's control. Like a local backup
yeah all of the people in the comments of his video are so happy about their forks 😭 at least their heart is in the right place ❤️
Excellent point, thank you.
