You’ll definitely need Git on your computer.
If you’re new to using Git, we also recommend getting a GUI client. Consider GitX-dev or Fork for Mac, Git Extensions for Windows, or SourceTree for either. And, you’ll want to read up on some Git resources and practice pulling, pushing, and making a pull request.
To fork our repository:
Create an account on Github
Go to our repository page
Click the ‘fork’ button in the upper(ish) right.
You should be taken to a page that looks a lot like the original page, but in the upper left corner you’ll see instead of
“codefordc/housing-insights“
it says
“YourUsername/housing-insights
forked from codefordc/housing-insights”
Screenshots to come - ask a project lead if you need help!
