Welcome to CS @ UCL!

If you've reached this repository, well done - you've reached the end of my Intro to Git & GitHub talk!

Reminders

Here are a few reminders from the talk:

  • Git is a time machine (kind-of)
    • you can go back in time
    • you can rewrite history
    • you can collaborate with others on code
  • projects are split into repositories
  • you make a commit to make a 'checkpoint' of your code
  • GitHub is a website that lets you manage and host your Git repositories, and provides a pretty UI to do so (it also has a bunch of features to help make it easier to work with others on projects!)

Remember to register for the GitHub Student Developer Pack for a bunch of free perks!.

Your challenge

Use GitHub's interface, GitHub Desktop, or the Git CLI (terminal!) to edit the GUESTBOOK.md file and add your name (or username!) and a short fact(s) about yourself so we can get to know each other!

If you want to add a link to a personal website, or social media, or even a picture of yourself, feel free to do so too!

Remember: everything in a public repository (like this!) can be seen by the entire world -- make sure you add a fact you are happy with anyone knowing and are happy with it being linked to your GitHub profile!

Here's an example of the Markdown-formatted text you can add to the file:

### Shubham Jain
I loooveeeeee the [Chuck](https://www.nbc.com/chuck) TV series
