World 5: Teamwork

Tour a GitHub repo

You will learn: what each part of a repo page on GitHub is for.

The problem

You just joined the code club’s project on GitHub. Tabs, buttons and files everywhere! What do you read first?

Watch

Practice repo — not a real website

Club Site

The website for our school code club.

Get started

Open index.html in your browser.

Help out

Read CONTRIBUTING.md first.

This is a practice repo page. The Code tab lists the files. The README: The front-door file of a repo. It says what the project is and how to start. shows under them. Now open CONTRIBUTING.md.

Try it

Each tab has its own job. Sort each job into its tab.

Drag a card into a box. Or tap the card, then tap the box.

          Hi! Say hello below. Tell us one thing you like to build.

        Watch

        Three buttons sit near the top. Star saves a repo like a bookmark. Watch sends you news about it. Fork makes your own copy.

        Which one keeps you posted on new issues?

        Check

        New on a team? Good habit, or needs work? Swipe each one.

        Swipe right for good, left for needs work. Or use the buttons.

        Read the README and CONTRIBUTING.md first

        You did it!

        You can now find your way around any repo page.

        Go deeper (optional)

        The About box shows the description and topics. Releases list the finished versions. Insights shows who helps, and how often. Press . on a repo page to open it in a web editor. You will try that in World 9.
