https://www.udemy.com/course/git-and-github-guide-for-beginners/

In programming and software development, making mistakes in your project and collaborating with others are inevitable. For this reason, you must have tools that enable you to revert your mistakes, collaborate with others effortlessly, and view the history of changes to your project over time. Therefore, you need to learn to use tools such as Git and GitHub.

What is Git?

Git is a completely free Version Control System (VCS) tool, specifically created for and used by developers all over the world to manage project code history locally on their machines (Windows, MacOS, Linux). A Version Control System (VCS) enables you to track changes to your project. This way, you will be able to revert mistakes, collaborate with others, and view the history of changes and differences made to your project.

What is GitHub?

GitHub is an online hosting service for Git projects. Storing project code online, updating code, accessing other team members' code, and collaborating on large-scale projects inside your organization are all possible with the help of GitHub!

Why Should I Know These Tools?

Version Control is key to managing projects efficiently, so not knowing Git and GitHub makes your daily developer life a lot more complicated. The same applies if you're currently looking for a new job in the industry; Version Control is required in any developer projects these days, so not knowing Git and GitHub puts you behind your competition!

Although Git and GitHub are user-friendly, both come with their own logic and language. Getting started can therefore be a bit cumbersome, and this is where this course comes into play!

What Do I Learn in This Course?

In this course, you will learn to use Git and GitHub to Version Control your projects. No prior Git or GitHub knowledge is required!
