GitHub

Originally founded as a project to simplify sharing code, GitHub has grown into an application used by over a million people to store over two million code repositories, making GitHub the largest code host in the world.

Along with Git, there are two major Git servers-as-a-service: GitHub and GitLab. Both have a lot of services for collaboration, continuous integration (CI), continuous deployment (CD), versioning, sharing, issue tracking, and more. For our purposes, we are going to stick with GitHub since this is the service the author knows best. However, we will not be using GitHub in part one of this series, so don’t worry about it for now. But, if you want to save some time, go ahead and make yourself a GitHub account so that you’re ready for part 2.

Git for Windows

- Open Source
If you’re on Windows, you’ll have to head over to gitforwindows and follow the download instructions there. Don’t worry about installing any GUI programs. In my experience, Git is much more intuitive once you get used to using it from the command line than any GUI program (but if you must use one, I recommend GitHub desktop).
