If you have questions about this week's lab, reading, or lecture, ANY TA for this class can help you with any problems. That being said, only email YOUR TA! Office hours are on Discord and Zoom. If none of the times for for you, please don't hesitate to reach out via email to set up another time.
Last week, we all learned how to use GitHub. This week, we will be learning about aspects of software that go hand in hand with GitHub. That is, how do people know what to do with open-source projects? If someone visited the repo that you made last week, how would they know what it does or how to contribute to it? You'll know the answer to both these questions and more by the end of today. Then, you'll apply that knowledge to the repo you made and submit it by next week.
There are a lot of readings for this week, and they're all in the lecture notebook. Check them out!
