Running Terminals: Edit Configuration command for the first time gives error message #1

Hi there, I'd just like to preface this by saying that I know this probably isn't a bug and is most likely just a result of me not knowing how to install extensions properly in VS Code because I'm just getting started with it.

After installing Terminals (directly from the button on the sidebar) and running the Terminals: Edit Configuration command for the first time, I get the error message shown at the top of the screenshot ("You have to open a project before being able to edit its configuration").

What does it mean to "open a project" and how can I go about solving this? Would manually creating a terminals.json file under the .vscode directory help?

Additionally, other extensions I have installed so far are:

"Tyriar.terminal-tabs",
"dangelov.theme-monokaigravity",
"dbaeumer.vscode-eslint",
"eg2.tslint",
"fabiospampinato.vscode-terminals",
"zhuangtongfa.Material-theme"

Thank you so much for your help in advance!

Terminals: Edit configuration will create a configuration file under your currently opened folder path. You're seeing that error because you didn't open any folder.

I understand now. Again, sorry about that and thank you!

No problem.

I hope you'll like the extension :) let me know if you have some ideas about new features 👍
