GitHub is one of the most widely used repostories in the world for storing code. But it's so much more powerful than just "storage" - GitHub powers the ability to store code, track changes, host websites, manage workflows, and even integrate with Canvas - easily and for FREE!Across the state, GitHub is being used to store queries and reports for Infinite Campus, support classrooms, and even host policies and procedure documents.In this session, we will explore the various use cases for GitHub, get started with how to use the tool, and explore the various features available. You'll learn how to log in, upload content, and share it with others.
