Code Management

Git tracks every change you make to your code, and GitHub keeps a copy of your repositories online so you can back them up, share them, and collaborate. We use GitHub Desktop, so you don't need the command line. You will need these skills for the next lecture, where you publish your app's code to GitHub and deploy it as a data app.

Topics

  • Github Tutorial — set up a GitHub account and GitHub Desktop, create and publish a repository, then commit and push changes and make a repository public; an optional section on collaborating through forks and pull requests.
  • Github Pages — host a free static website from a GitHub repository, with README.md as the landing page, and change its look with a theme.
