Student Reviews For The Git Bootcamp With GitHub Course.
"Brilliant course. Learned a lot and I am now using git and github in my software development. The videos and explanations are very clear and cover everything you need to get started using git and github." - David Crombie
"Not only does he teach the basics of git and GitHub, but he also shows how to use it with several different editors, and even shows you how to install all of them on top of it. I have a much better grip on git and GitHub and although I do need a lot of practice" - Francisca Roele
"The information on how to configure git and github was very clear and easy to follow. The examples on how to use git were easy to understand and the instructor showed how to use the most important features of git. Overall it is a very good introduction to the use of git and github." - Bill Coulter
