Introduction to Git & GitHub: Cefas attendees

The use of code is widespread throughout science, for both numerical modelling and data processing.

Git and GitHub enable management and sharing of code. Therefore, anyone who uses or develops code (including python, R, Matlab, etc.), for any purpose, would benefit from using this software.

This 1-day course will provide an introduction to Git and GitHub, and how to use it, covering topics such as:

• What is Git and GitHub?
• How can I use Git/GitHub to manage my own projects?
• How can I use GitHub to collaborate with others?

The course will involve both presentations and practical exercises. Therefore, **attendees will need to provide their own laptop** (no computing facilities will be provided).

What else do I need to attend the course?

• No prior knowledge of Git/GitHub is required.
• Attendees should have at least a basic knowledge of coding, but this can be in any language.

This course is open to those associated with either Cefas or UEA (including ARIES DTP students). It will run in-person only, so please only register if you plan to attend in-person at UEA, Norwich.
