Git & GitHub

Git is the industry standard system for code version control. It helps software developing teams manage changes to their source code over time. In other words, version control keeps track of every change in your code, and it allows you to go back in time when something goes wrong. It is really helpful to prevent work done at the same time from conflicting when multiple people are working on the same project. GitHub is a website that stores code in the cloud. Using Git & GitHub, we can track everyone’s contributions from their device, see where mistakes or bugs may have occurred, and revert as necessary. You can think of this as a much more complicated version of the version control in Google Docs.

Don’t worry we will help you out with this and it is much simpler than it looks, trust us!

Without Git, it is almost impossible to manage a large codebase effectively. We can use version control systems to work together.

Fun fact: Git was developed Linus Torvalds (the creator of linux) to help with developing the Linux kernel after the version control system they were using fell short. Two decades later and virtually every developer uses Git!
