HN always said that Git and its naming is so complex that from startups to matured faang daddies, nobody invests a workshop or two per week in it. I am at loss of words to see that companies rather find young talent use emacs/vim which are an old hag of a complex editors.
Thank you for making this. I hope you find a good chunk of enthusiastic bigshots contributing this.
- bradwoodsio 4y agoThanks mate. I've heard a couple of times from people learning to code - "JavaScript is fine, it's everything else that makes the process overwhelming". 'Everything else' referring to Git, webpack, etc... My goal is to get people comfortable with Git in an isolated environment, away from coding. Leverage knowledge they already have (a timeline / history of the world) to help understanding. I think if you try to learn Git + programming language + webpack + ... all at once, your trying to go from crawling to sprinting. Better to learn each of these in isolation so you go from crawling, to walking, to jogging, to sprinting.
