    Thanks @Emily Seale, I'm looking for guidance on how to add bob extension to my vscode and start using it.
    Such a fundamental step was supposed to be so simple and stratight-forward as apparently there are already 6000 IBMers using it, but unforutnately I didn't manage to find this guidance anywhere. :/
    Any ideas here would be appreaciated!

    Hi Hugo,

    maybe I ca clarify some things about Project Bob.

    1. Project Bob isn't publicly available right now - there isn't even a public or closed Beta at this time
    2. AFAWK Project Bob will be its own IDE based in VScode, because Project Bob needs more access than a VScode extension can have. The IDE is a fork of VScode and hopefully new VScode features will be intergrated fast. 
    3. AFAWK we will be able to install VScode extensions in the Project Bob IDE. 

    A lot of this is speculation and extrapolation from what we have seen and tried out at TechXchange. So please take this all with a grain of salt.

    Kind regards,

    Daniel

    Thanks Daniel, much appreciated. 🙏
    The frustrating part is that I'm not public, i'm an IBMer highly interested in contributing and apparenly other 6000 IBMers are already using it.. even if an alpha, is it sonething so secret that can have so many detailed videos on publicly available on youtube but can't be tried by own IBMers (even if still in alpha)?

    Thanks, @Emily Seale, I've been testing Bob and it's working really well. I'd like to upload a video demonstration of one of my use cases, which might be useful to others, to the Project Bob YouTube channel as a contributor. Is there a process for doing this? Please let me know the next steps.

    Dear @Emily Seale, the URL https://www.youtube.com/@ask-bob does not exist.

    I have found a "non official" IBM Bob channel though IBM Bob YouTube channel 

    I' got the same issue with the link sent in the invitation to use Bob; the URL does NOT exist neither :
