Surprisingly hard to teach. Think should split so step by step walk through steps of how to create a repositiory on github
Firstly get everyone to signup for github
- 1.Clone that repository locally
- 2.Add a file to it
- 3.Commit
- 4.Set up stream then push to it
- 5.Then update file in vs code
- 6.Stage/Commit the file commit
- 7.Push it
- 8.Then update file again/add a new file
- 9.Repeat same in vscode
- 10.Then repeat using command line.
These links may help trainers come up with content for the lesson:
- And this explained the concepts well: https://rachelcarmena.github.io/2018/12/12/how-to-teach-git.html
Was dead easy for students to work out by themselves and get it done
Just point them at vercel website and get them to add github project they just created online
Important points:
- The root of the project must be named index.html otherwise shows folder structure.
