Hello World! The Development Wing of the Computer Science Society at Ashoka University and WireByte the Makers' Club would like to warmly welcome you to our Hacktoberfest 2020 @ Ashoka meetup! In this introductory workshop you will learn about:
- Version Control Systems
- Git
- Create your GitHub account
- Repositories, commits, forks, branches and pull requests
- And how to contribute to Open Source Code!
The interactive workshop has 3 checkpoints:
- Checkpoint 1 - Creating your GitHub account and confirming whether you have Git installed on your machine
- Checkpoint 2 - Creating a repository, cloning a local copy of it onto your system, making some changes and pushing it back to your remote repository all from your CLI
- Checkpoint 3 - Forking this very repository and submitting a pull request
Once you've passed all 3 checkpoints give yourself a pat on the back you've successfully completed our workshop and can start contributing to Open Source Code! 🎉🎉🎉
Hacktoberfest is a month long celebration of open source contributions and is a brilliant way to get involved with a larger global programming community. While there are many reasons to participate in Hacktoberfest 2020, the biggest one should be to help make meaningful contributions that improve projects!
