Look inside

In this liveProject, you’ll master the basics of Git by completing the kind of day-to-day tasks done by professional programmers. You’ll step into the shoes of a junior developer working for a technology startup and create a Git repository so your colleagues can collaborate on developing a To Do List web app. You’ll start with the basics of setting up Git locally, followed by creating a Git repository and branches, then use advanced Git commands such as rebase and cherry-pick to reconcile changes. By the time you’ve finished, you’ll have learned an essential skill of software development.
