Git & GitHub Fundamentals
Learn Git and GitHub from scratch, the version-control skills every developer needs. Start with what version control is and why it matters, install Git, and create your first repository. Master the everyday workflow (add, commit, push, pull), branching and merging, and resolving conflicts. Then collaborate like a pro on GitHub with forks, pull requests, code reviews, and issues, and finish with GitHub Actions, Pages, and how to undo mistakes safely. No prior experience required.
