GitHub from Scratch

For our next workshop we're offering an introduction to GitHub, one of the most popular online platforms for sharing code and collaborating on projects. Our focus for this workshop will be the tools GitHub provides to create websites and even blogs easily from within the platform.

The course is intended for beginners: if you know how to use a browser, you're good to go. You will learn and install everything else on the go. If you have seen some HTML before it will help, but it is not required. We will show you around the basics. The only thing you will need to bring is a laptop.

Thanks as ever to our hosts the Electron Workshop.

Because the number of seats is limited, it is important that you only sign up if you definitely plan on coming (and do so, too!). If you can't make it for any reason, please cancel your attendance on Meetup right away so your someone on the waiting list can take your place. Thanks!
