About

Code, Commit, Collaborate: Hands-On Git & GitHub Workshop

It is an unspoken reality in many engineering colleges: you can build complex projects, and write thousands of lines of code without ever learning how to properly manage it.

In the modern tech industry, knowing how to code is only half the battle. The other half is knowing how to collaborate. Git and GitHub are the absolute backbone of software engineering, open-source communities, and remote work. Without them, contributing to real-world projects or passing technical interviews becomes incredibly difficult.

We will cover:

  • The Absolute Basics: What Git actually is and why standard folder backups don't work for developers.

  • The Core Commands: Getting comfortable in the terminal with git fork, init, add, commit, push, pull, pull request.

  • Time Travel for Code: How to view your project's history and undo disastrous mistakes without losing your mind.

  • Branching Out: How to build new features safely using branches without breaking your main project.

Prerequisites: Just bring your laptop and a curiosity to learn. No prior experience with version control is required.

Let’s build a stronger tech culture, one commit at a time.
