### Checks - [x] This is not a duplicate of an existing issue (please have a look through our [open issues list](https://github.com/TheOdinProject/curriculum/issues) to make sure) - [x] I have thoroughly read and understand [The Odin Project Contributing Guide](https://github.com/TheOdinProject/.github/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md) - [ ] Would you like to work on this issue? ### Describe your suggestion I have an ARM64 laptop, but the VS Code download link doesn't include an option for it. So when I used VS Code, I got a pop-up every 20/30 minutes saying, "This program does not support the version of Windows your computer is running." I ignored it until I got to the landing page project and my downloaded "Roboto" font wasn't showing up on my webpage, so I uninstalled VS Code, downloaded the ARM64 version, and the font is working now, and the pop-up hasn't shown up since. I am also using WSL2 because the VM doesn't support ARM64. I suggest that a link to the VS Code ARM64 download link is added ### Path Foundations ### Lesson Url https://github.com/TheOdinProject/curriculum/blob/main/foundations/installations/installation_guides/text_editors/wsl2.md ### (Optional) Discord Name jay_tee02 ### (Optional) Additional Comments _No response_

I think it's worth noting in the lesson that if you are on an ARM64 machine you will need to go to the link (mentioned below the instructions table) to find the correct version: https://code.visualstudio.com/download?_exp_download=fb315fc982 I'll open it up for work, thanks for reporting.
