Student feedback

Ahsan Khan – simple, concise and easy to follow. The course skips all the theoretical workings of git that are irrelevant and jumps straight to teaching by practice.

Glynda Finister – Great course. I am finding git and github extremely difficult to learn. I’m a newby trying to learn it with Atom, which is new to me too. I need to learn the remote section the most. I would recommend using a lighted pointer like the blue one you used to show exactly what url you are on – that’s what is confusing me, I can’t tell which url you are on. This is the 4th git/github course I’ve purchases, and I just bought 2 more. I’m stuck mostly on trying to learn the remote. Thank you.

Attila Zabos – From my point of view this is one of the more comprehensive and easy to understand introductory courses about git and github. The course gives a good overview of using git for day-to-day work.
