The starting point

Initial source code is required to do the kata

If there is initial source code for the kata (for example, a refactoring kata) add this content at the end of the file (instead of (*) Starting point) to indicate the location (URL) and languages:

{%
    include get_the_code.md
    url='Source code repository URL'
    languages='List of languages separated by commas'
%}

For example:

{%
    include get_the_code.md
    url='https://github.com/emilybache/GildedRose-Refactoring-Kata'
    languages='ABAP, C, C++, C#, Dart, Elixir, F#, Go, Groovy, Haskell,
    Java, JavaScript, Kotlin, Perl, PHP, PLSQL, Python, Ruby, Rust, R,
    Scala, Smalltalk, Swift'
%}

Initial source code is not required to do the kata

In case there is no initial source code for the kata, add this line at the end of the file (instead of (*) Starting point) to add repository links with bootstraps in different programming languages:

{% include starting_points.md %}
