We had the Git and GitHub Workshop (+ building resume websites in less than 20 minutes) with the Web Dev + Intro to Tech Skills Track, as part of the peer mentorship program (Kenyan Chapter).

We covered: -

What is Git
Git within the software development ecosystem
Basic Git commands
GitHub workflows
Git Hooks

 

... followed by a code-along 👨🏻‍💻👩🏼‍💻 workshop to help you build website to showcase your resume in a matter of minutes.

“There is nothing that speaks more ‘dev’ than having a recruiter ask for your CV and you point them to GitHub”
** Beginner-friendly, you just need your laptop!
