Welcome to Hands-On Introduction to Git with GitHub. I’m Lucas, a tech lead working in an international team with a passion for helping beginners kickstart their tech journey in a simple and practical way.

In this course, we’ll demystify version control using Git and GitHub — two essential tools in every developer’s workflow. We’ll start from the absolute basics: what Git is, why it matters, and how to set up your local Git environment.

Then, we’ll move into hands-on practice with the most important Git concepts:

• How to track and commit changes

• How to view and navigate project history

• How to create, switch, and merge branches

• How to resolve merge conflicts step by step

• How to undo changes and restore previous versions

• How to push your code to GitHub and collaborate with others

• How to create and review pull requests

You’ll also learn how to use .gitignore to keep your projects clean, and how GitHub fits into modern teamwork and open source collaboration.

By the end of this course, you’ll not only understand how to use Git and GitHub – you’ll feel confident to start using them in real-world projects.

So whether you’re a new developer, switching careers, or just curious about version control – you’re in the right place.

Let’s make Git simple, collaborative, and fun!

Who this course is for:

• Beginner developers who want to learn version control
• Students and hobbyists who are starting out with Git
