1. Set up GitHub

Make a GitHub account! You can do this from GitHub’s website:

GitHub: Let's build from here

2. Open the repository

We’ll be using this GitHub repository for the interactive portion of the workshop.

https://github.com/AngelOnFira/glowing-spoon

When you get to the repository page, it is important to make a “fork” of the repository. This will make a copy that your user owns. To do this, click “fork” in the top right.

Then, make sure the Owner is your GitHub user, and click Create Fork!

3. Open a Codespace

We’ll be using a GitHub Codespace so that we can get access to a terminal for the workshop. You can open a Codespace from any repository by clicking the green button, going to CodeSpaces, and clicking “Create codespace on main”.

4. Make a commit

For this, there are a few steps, and a few ways to do it. But first, we’ll need to add a file. For this, add a new file under the “people” directory with your GitHub username. Add something to this file; either some text or a hello world in your favourite language!
