Full Stack of Pancakes

<P>This week is National Coding Week, so every day Full Stack Of Pancakes is hosting workshops to get Manchester coding.</P>
<P>In this workshop, we're going to learn about and playing with the master of file management - GIT. You'll leave having learnt about deploying your code, making changes, pushes, pulls, branches and masters - all the important stuff you'd need to know to get your code working and how to work on larger projects with your fellow coders.</P>

<H3>What is Git?</H3>
<P>Git is a distributed version control system. To translate that into English, Git is a tool to help keep track of changes you make to your coding project and allows you and a team to share these changes with each other. <SPAN>Git helps you collaborate and manage your project files which is useful for personal projects but essential for commercial projects.</SPAN>If/when you become an employed developer you'll discover that getting your code up and running is a team effort, not a lonely endeavour undertaken by one developer in their bedroom. </P>
<H3>Who is this workshop for?</H3>
<P>Any adult with an active interest in learning to code! You'll already be confident with using a computer and web browsers, you might have already started learning to code HTML and CSS for example, this workshop will enhance your existing skill-set by explaining new concepts to you. For newbie coders, this workshop will be a fun introduction to the world of code deployment.  <BR></P>
<H3>I'm interested but I've never coded before, can I still come?</H3>
<P>Absolutely! This workshop is designed specifically for total novices, our mentors are briefed to keep jargon to a minimum, and as well as a friendly lecture we'll provide visual aids for you to refer to. This workshop will be a safe space to ask all the questions you need to, all of us are here and excited to support you on your coding journey.</P>
<H3>What do I need to bring?<BR></H3>
<P><STRONG>Your laptop</STRONG>, its charger, and bags of enthusiasm to face a bit of challenge.</P>
<H3>Coding is hungry work, will there be food and refreshments?</H3>
<P>Our sponsor has kindly sponsored our refreshments and food for the evening, there will be; water, tea, coffee, soft drinks. There will also be pizza - meat, veggie, and vegan options available! If you have any specific dietary requirements please contact the organiser.<BR></P>
