I would love to read some or most of these books but i just this week figured out the very very basics of github, how do i read these books? Can they be downloaded or something? I know it sounds like a very basic question but i need a very basic answer please... and secondly what is an API?

[Marko Denic]

The easiest way to find something on Github is to go to the repo you're interested in and to use the search bar. There are two search options: "In this repository" and "All GitHub". Choose "In this repository". You can see it here (dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/i/...).
