In this beginner-friendly workshop, you'll learn the basics of Git, a powerful command line tool for tracking changes in coding projects, and GitHub, a web-based platform for sharing and collaborating on code. We'll guide you through setting up a Git project, making and tracking changes, exploring revision history, and sharing your work on GitHub.

This workshop is designed for those with little or no prior experience with Git or GitHub. While no Git knowledge is required, some familiarity with the command line is recommended.
