Workshop: Publishing Your Research Code on GitHub

Are you currently writing code for your research project? If so, have you thought about where it’s stored? If you aren’t already using GitHub or a similar version control service, now is the perfect time to start. Moving your work to GitHub offers more than just cloud backup; it provides a “time machine” for your project. With version control, you have a complete history of every change, allowing you to experiment freely and revert to previous versions if something goes wrong.

We know that Git and GitHub can feel intimidating at first. To help you bridge that gap, the DHTech Code Review Working Group is hosting a one-hour virtual workshop designed to help you publish your research code with confidence. We will start with a brief introduction to the core concepts of Git, followed by a hands-on walkthrough to get your specific project uploaded.
