So I've been told not to run VS code as sudo, or any application for that matter because the way Ubuntu's model system works is you should have to elevate permissions.



The best piece of advice I've been given is



sudo chmod -R 777 /var/www/html/


But apparently, even this isn't a good way, so how exactly are we supposed to do it? I haven't met a question yet that actually explains. I don't want to go and learn the whole permission system as I am using Ubuntu for one day and don't see a need to spend over an hour learning it.
