If you want to follow along with the talk, you'll need to get some stuff set up ahead of time:

  1. Sign up for (or verify you have) a Github account.
  2. Install the Github Desktop client.
  • If you want to use a different GUI, go ahead, but I can't guarantee I'll be able to help you if you get hung up by it.
  1. Verify you can use git in Terminal (on Mac) or in Powershell or Git Bash (on Windows).
  • Mac: You should be able to just type git in Terminal and it will walk you through everything you need to do if it's not already set up.
  • Windows: The Github Desktop installer should set everything up for you. You might need to edit you PATH environment variable.
  1. Optional: Authenticate with Github from you local git
  2. Dance
