This course makes use of security alerts for vulnerable dependencies, a feature that needs to be configured by GHES administrators.
The following are dependencies of the course. The course may continue to work without these dependencies, but learners won't experience the course as designed.
| Dependency | Required? | Reason | Alternative |
|---|---|---|---|
| GHES must be able to reach githubusercontent.com | Yes | Images used throughout the course are served from this domain. Learners will find broken images required to take the course without this access. | Manually download the images referenced in the responses/ folder, upload them to an accessible domain, and replace the images in the responses/ folder. |
| Security alerts for vulnerable dependencies must be enabled on GHES | Yes | This course prompts users to interact with alerts triggered by intentionally vulnerable dependencies. | None |
| Learner must be able to reach github.com and outside web | No | Links are provided to resources that live on the outside web. | Without access to resources on the outside web, learners will reach blocked resources. You can change the links to these resources in the responses/ folder, and in the template repository. |
| GitHub Pages | No | Used to let the learner work on a realistic, published web page. | Remove the first step in config.yml, and adjust responses in the responses/ folder to remove any mentions of GitHub Pages. |
