GitHub is changing the way that software gets built. Conceived originally as a way to make it easier for developers to contribute to open source projects, GitHub is rapidly becoming the default platform for software development. More than just a tool for storing source code, GitHub provides a range of powerful tools for specifying, discussing, and reviewing software and other text-based documents.
If you are working with developers on a software project, this book is for you, whether you are a:
- Business stakeholder who wants to have a sense of how your project is going
- Product or project manager who needs to ensure that software is delivered on time and within budget
- Designer who needs to deliver anything from mockups to HTML/CSS for a project
- Copywriter whos adding marketing copy or other content to a site or an app
- Lawyer whos reviewing the legal implications of a project or writing the terms and conditions or privacy policy
- Team member who needs to review, comment on, and/or contribute to the project
- Technical writer whos making sure a projects documentation is up to date for all collaborators to help them get their jobs done
- Developer who is new to using GitHub and wants to learn how to collaborate using GitHub in a team
If you need to view the progress of a piece of software while its being developed, if you would like to be able to comment on the progress, and if youd like to have the option of contributing changes to the project, this book will show you how to effectively collaborate with a software development team by using GitHub.
While GitHub is still primarily used to collaborate on the development of software, its also a great way for a team to collaborate on a wide range of projects. From the authoring of books (like this one) and the distribution of models for 3D printing to the crafting of legislation, whenever you have a team of people collaborating on a collection of documents, you should consider using GitHub to manage the process. Our examples will assume that youre working on software because that is currently the most common use case, but this book is the perfect guide to collaborating via GitHub on any kind of project.
This book is designed to teach the core skills required to collaborate effectively using GitHub. If you are already familiar with forking, cloning, and using feature branches and pull requests for collaboration, you probably wont learn that much.
Equally, if you are looking for an in-depth introduction to the Git version control system, this is not the book that you are looking for. This book covers just enough Git to do the job of introducing GitHub, but its not a comprehensive introduction to Git. For that you should read the excellent Version Control with Git by Jon Loeliger and Matthew McCullough (OReilly).
This book has deliberately been made as concise as possible. You should be able to read it pretty quickly. If you want to gain the confidence that comes from really understanding what GitHub is about and how to use it, try to read the book from start to finish.
However, I know that youre busy. If youre in a rush, start by skimming the first chapter. so you should be able to read just the chapter you need to complete a particular task.
