This workshop will introduce Git and GitHub, two widely used tools for archiving, versioning, and collaborating on code and other documents. 

The session will cover how to use Git and GitHub for version control, including creating repositories, committing changes, and tagging releases. You’ll also explore how GitHub can be used to share your projects, collaborate with other developers, and create tutorials and simple web sites to present your work. 

This workshop will not use Unix to interact with Git and does not have any prerequisites. Instead, we will use the GitHub web interface and focus primarily on how to create a repository and portfolio for sharing and presenting your work, including code created with Jupyter Notebook.
