Module 0.3: Opening the Course Folder
Reference Guide
- Time to Complete: 5 minutes
- Prerequisites: Antigravity installed (Module 0.2)
📖 Overview
Download the course files and open them in Antigravity to unlock interactive lessons with slash commands.
Key takeaway: Download ZIP from website, unzip to Documents, open folder in Antigravity, and verify file structure.
Download Course Files
The ZIP file (complete-course.zip) downloads automatically to your Downloads folder.
Unzip Course Files
Mac:
- Open Downloads folder
- Double-click the ZIP file
- A new folder appears:
complete-course - Drag this folder to your Documents folder (or preferred location)
Windows:
- Open Downloads folder
- Right-click the ZIP file
- Select Extract All
- Choose destination (Documents folder recommended)
- Click Extract
⚠️ Important: Remember where you put this folder. You’ll open it in Antigravity next.
Open Folder in Antigravity
You have three ways to open the course folder in Antigravity:
Method 1: File Menu
- Launch Antigravity
- Click File → Open Folder (Mac) or File → Open Folder (Windows)
- Navigate to where you unzipped the files (e.g., Documents)
- Select the
complete-coursefolder - Click Open
Method 2: Drag and Drop
- Launch Antigravity
- Open Finder (Mac) or File Explorer (Windows)
- Navigate to the
complete-coursefolder - Drag the entire folder onto Antigravity’s window
- Antigravity opens the folder as a project
Method 3: Welcome Screen
- Launch Antigravity
- On the welcome screen, click Open Folder
- Navigate to
complete-course - Click Open
Trust the Folder
When you open the folder, Antigravity may ask:
“Do you trust the authors of files in this folder?”
Click Yes, I trust the authors.
Why this appears: Antigravity protects you from potentially malicious code. Since you downloaded these course files from the official website, they’re safe to trust.
Verify Setup
Check File Explorer
After opening the folder, you should see a File Explorer on the left side showing:
complete-course/
├── .agent/
│ ├── commands/
│ └── rules/
├── company-context/
├── lesson-modules/
└── README.mdDon’t see File Explorer? Click View → Sidebar or press Cmd+B (Mac) / Ctrl+B (Windows).
Test Slash Commands
- Look for the chat input at the bottom of the Editor view
- Type
/in the input box - You should see a dropdown with commands like
/start-1-1,/start-1-2, etc.

Recommended settings to start:
- Mode: Fast (shown at bottom left)
- Model: Gemini 3 Flash (shown at bottom)
These settings give you quick responses while learning. You can switch to Planning mode later for more complex tasks.
If you see the slash commands, you’re ready! These commands trigger the interactive lessons.
Quick Navigation
Now that your folder is open, here’s what you need to know:
File Explorer (Left sidebar):
- Browse all course files
- Click files to open them
- Expand/collapse folders with arrows
Chat Input (Editor view):
- Where you’ll interact with Gemini
- Type slash commands to start lessons
- Type questions or requests
That’s it for now. Module 1.1 will walk you through everything in detail.
🐛 Troubleshooting
”I don’t see the File Explorer”
Fix: Press Cmd+B (Mac) or Ctrl+B (Windows) to toggle the sidebar. Or click View → Sidebar.
”Slash commands don’t appear when I type /”
Fix: Make sure you opened the folder (not individual files). Close Antigravity, then use File → Open Folder and select the entire complete-course folder.
”The folder structure looks different”
Fix: You may have opened a subfolder by mistake. Close Antigravity and open the top-level folder (the one containing .agent, company-context, and lesson-modules).
”Antigravity asks me to trust the folder every time”
Fix: Make sure you clicked “Yes, I trust the authors” and checked “Trust all files in parent folder” (if that option appears).
