Hey @angiejones,

thanks for the Test Automation University lesson on java programming!

These changes in project structure makes it runnable in Idea out of the box. Without these changes the java files are not recognized as a source files and Idea does not offer the Run option. It might save some time someone who wants to checkout the code from your repo and give it a run in Idea.

sets default Source folder
sets default output folder
adds .gitignore file

This is not required. You can download as is and open the project at the java-programming-master level (this then becomes the sources root) and all Java files are executable.

Having IDEA 2019.1.3 on Windows 10 and when I open it I don't see a run option. Maybe on a Mac it behaves differently? Anyway the target audience is probably not going to checkout this repo so all of this is not necessary after all.
