You’ve probably heard people say “open a pull request” or “check it on GitHub”—but what does that actually mean?
This beginner-friendly session explains the basics of Git and GitHub in the context of Joomla!. We’ll walk through what Git is, how GitHub is used in the Joomla! project, and why it’s such an important tool for collaboration in open source.
You’ll learn how to set up the tools you need, understand the typical workflow, and see how you can use GitHub to test patches, report issues, and contribute to Joomla!.
No prior Git experience is required. By the end of the session, you’ll have a clearer understanding of how the Joomla! development workflow works—and how you can start participating.
