Sharing
Git and GitHub are essential tools for modern software development. We will go through creating a GitHub account, setting up first repository, and pushing code to GitHub.
What is Git?
Git is a distributed version control system that allows multiple people to work on a project simultaneously without overwriting each other's changes. It tracks changes to files and enables reverting to previous states, making collaboration more efficient and error-free.
What is GitHub?
GitHub is a web-based platform that uses Git for version control. It provides a collaborative environment for developers to share, review, and manage code repositories. GitHub also offers additional features such as issue tracking, project management, and CI/CD integration.
