I made my FIRST GitHub Repository and...

#programming #beginners #basic #github

I'm so proud of myself I could cry!

Granted, all I did was click the create repository button, add a generic title like: First Github repository and the rest was history... and a lot of confusion BUT I DID IT and I'm so proud! 🤗
Confused but proud.

So what's the plan?

Great question. Well I've been trying to learn how to code for a while now and strangely enough after completing a Level 3 Diploma in software development in February this year, somehow I've never actually tried to build anything.

For some reason I've been stuck dabbling in multiple free online learning websites which are great, dont get me wrong. However, I felt it was time to actually give this web designing a go or else I'll be stuck just searching for more free online courses, signing up to them and most likely never really finishing them and if, by some miracle I do complete them, I still havent built an actual, even basic webpage.

So this is the plan:

Start using my Github account ✅
Create a repository ✅
Build/make a webpage ☐
Build another webpage ☐
And another... ☐
And one more for good measure ☐
Make updates to my Dev.to page each time to document this historic attempt at attempting to build websites. ☐

So about 5 projects in total and I think that will not only be beneficial learning experience but will be an opportunity for me to put myself out there and I fail (which I hope I wont but might do) at least we tried!

So thats the plan!

Hopefully this blog post will also add as a source of accountability for me

I dont really have a timeline but I'd say about 60 days should do it or maybe I'm being to naive? If any experienced individuals in coding or web design could let me know if this is doable, please let me know. Thank you in advance!
