Beginner's Guide to Git

So far...

My knowledge of Git is small at the moment, but much greater than it has ever been. I was always very overwhelmed by the concept, but am starting to truly appreciate what it has to offer.

I learned that in the past, companies would really only use verysion control if they had the means to afford it. That is because they had to have massive servers to store, not just the snapshots that we have now, which are really only recording changes, but entire websites worth of code. Many, many times.

Implementation

The basic pieces of code used in the terminal for Git are:

CodePen

Day 1

  1. HTML's purpose on a webpage is to give the browser structural information, such as text or basic styling.
  2. An element is what you're calling inside the tags. It's what lives inside the angled brackets. An element would be body and the tags would be <body> and </body>.
  3. Attributes give extra information to the browser.
  4. The head element gives the broswer information about the page, which often includes the title element and other meta information or links to your stylesheets. The title element will display what you put inside the tags on top of the page or within the tab for the page. The body element is meant to show what to display in the main broswer window.
  5. The keyboard shortcut to view the source of a website is option+command+u.
  6. The `` tag can go from 1-6 and is used for headers.
