What it does

Git might be super powerful, but it's also super confusing to many of the developers who use it. This course, with more than 7.5 hours of video, 80 exercises, and 11 slide decks, is an Internet version of the course I give to Fortune 100 companies. Understand repositories, commits, branches, merges, and Git on the network.

Learn Git from repositories and commits to branching, merging, rebasing, and GitHub pull requests across 79 video lessons and 10 coding exercises.

Want to learn Git — for work, or to contribute to open-source projects? Or perhaps you’re already using Git, but want to know it better? This course is what you need. Git is a powerful version-control system, allowing you to undo mistakes, work with earlier versions of your code, and collaborate with other developers seamlessly. That’s the good news. The bad news is that Git is notoriously hard for people to learn. That’s partly because you have to know how Git works under the hood in order to truly use it. And because the commands and terminology used in Git are confusing and surprising, especially for people with experience using other version-control systems. This course,…from lernerpython.com

    Understanding any GitHub repository is tough, especially a big one - this project aims to make it a tad bit easier by giving the listener a primer + some details on the specific repository. For some people (like me) - audio/visual medium is more easily understandable. So, I hope this project is helpful to some of them. This project was inspired by https://gitdiagram.com - so check it out as well, and maybe use them together for better understanding. Future plans: 1. To add more voices and let users choose most natural one (decide between OpenAI/Microsoft Speech) 2. Custom…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
