Learn Git, Ios and Ruby

This workshop will start by breaking down the four states in which a file can exist, and we'll build up our mental model of git from there. Then, we'll look at how to move files between those states in different ways.

Once we've developed a new model for how git operates, we'll be able to purposefully get ourselves into some sticky situations, and then gracefully recover from them.

If you can handle git add/commit/push, but not much more - then this workshop is perfect for you.

You can finally get some proper git training, and will never have to worry about losing data or messing up the repo again!

Git is a free and open source distributed version control system designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with speed and efficiency.

Fix Common Git Mistakes

Knowing your everyday toolset increases your productivity as a developer. And Git is one of those tools you use on a daily basis. Mastering Git is tough; it has hundreds of different commands, often even inconsistent at how you pass in flags and configuration options. On the other side, there are a lot of good Git courses out there already, explaining all of these commands in detail. 

With this course, I aim at a different goal. You will walk through a series of scenarios which you’ll most commonly encounter in your daily work life as a developer. I’m talking:
 - updating your feature branch with the latest changes from master
 - polishing your git history to make it ready for being peer-reviewed
 - moving a set of commits to another branch
 - undoing accidental commits

The goal is not to cover everything, but those tasks that will greatly improve your daily productivity with Git.


Productive Git for Developers

“Feel free to submit a PR!” - words often found in GitHub issues, but met with confusion and fear by many. Getting started with contributing open source is not always straightforward and can be tricky. With this series, you’ll be equipped with the the tools, knowledge, and understanding you need to be productive and contribute to the wonderful world of open source projects. Much of this series speaks about GitHub, but most of the concepts are generally applicable to contributing to any open source project, regardless of where it’s hosted.

So enjoy the course and start contributing to the projects you use and love today!

How to Contribute to an Open Source Project on GitHub

Open source framework for building truly native mobile apps with Angular, TypeScript or JavaScript.

Objective C is a very interesting programming language which offers a lot of power as well as interesting paradigms. Let’s look at some Objective C api’s and how they translate to NativeScript. In particular, let’s learn how to wire up iOS delegates using [Filestack's FSPickerDelegate](https://github.com/filestack/FSPicker#fspickerdelegate) as an example. We will also look at handling WeakRef’s and iterating an NSArray.

Use Objective C Delegates in NativeScript for Angular iOS apps

One of the exciting benefits you have with NativeScript is the ability to write native code (Java and Objective C) directly in JavaScript/TypeScript allowing you to create a consistent high level api over top of both underlying iOS Objective C/Swift and Android Java apis. In this lesson, we will look at how to design a consistent api that taps into the appropriate native api’s on the target platforms using underlying native libraries.

Develop a consistent plugin api across your Android and iOS NativeScript app

Rails is a web-application framework that includes everything needed to create database-backed web applications according to the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern.

Expanding on [Part 1](https://egghead.io/lessons/angularjs-rails-todo-api-part-1), this lesson will look at how to bootstrap AngularJS in a rails application as part of the asset pipeline. With Angular available, you'll see how to communicate with the Rails API using $resource.

Rails Todo API Part 2

To prepare your development environment to code against native apis such as Objective C, Swift and Java, let's learn how to [install tns-platform-declarations](https://www.npmjs.com/package/tns-platform-declarations) to provide rich intellisense support for all the native iOS and Android api’s. This lesson will cover how to modify your tsconfig.json and references.d.ts properly to ensure working with native api’s is smooth and as helpful as possible.

In this lesson we'll explore debugging our React Native application in an actual iOS device.

React Native: Debugging on an iOS Device

We will learn how to install an Objective C library distributed via a [CocoaPod](https://cocoapods.org) into our project and expose its native api to our app. Specifically, we will cover how to immediately start working with the library even when a [NativeScript](/q/nativescript) plugin does not exist for it. Take for example [Filestack](https://filestack.com), a really powerful file uploading api that provides an SDK written in [JavaScript](/q/javascript) for the web, but also offers native SDK's for iOS and Android. Let's take a look at how to code right against this [native iOS SDK](https://filestack.com/docs/sdks/ios).

In this lesson we'll look at some simple ways to customize TabBarIOS, creating a scrollable tab area, and implementing custom icons in TabBarIOS.Item.

React Native: TabBarIOS Customization

Learn how to generate TypeScript declaration files for all native api’s for iOS, including any 3rd party Objective C/Swift libraries included in your project via Cocoapods or other means. This will allow you to view all the metadata for included iOS libraries to see what classes and apis are exposed to NativeScript.

Building a custom NativeScript XML view component for iOS entails several interesting notes, like overriding the onLoaded method of the base NativeScript View class. Let’s look at how to properly build a custom component based on an underlying native view widget with NativeScript XML which may come from a CocoaPod. We will learn several important aspects regarding Objective C properties and methods you will need to consider. In particular, we will implement this [Objective C view component](https://github.com/Boris-Em/BEMAnalogClock)

Rails makes an excellent choice for delivering data to AngularJS via REST apis. In this first lesson of a two part series, you'll see how to create a simple API for CRUD operations on TODOs using Rails. This isn't an introduction to Rails, and assumes you know the basics. 

Rails Todo API Part 1

In this lesson we’ll talk about what GitHub is and how to sign up for a GitHub account so you can contribute to an open source project on GitHub.

Introduction to GitHub

GitHub adds a lot of great features on top of git repository hosting. We’ll take a look at some of these features including:

- How to create a repository and organization on GitHub
- How to explore and find projects on GitHub
- About GitHub gists
- Searching pull requests and issues on GitHub

Exploring GitHub

The basic unit of GitHub is a repository. This is where your code is stored and GitHub allows you to interact with others and with the code in great ways. In this lesson we talk about Watching, Starting, and Forking a repository. We also cover GitHub issues and pull requests and various other stats about a GitHub repository.

Exploring a Repository

Let’s install the Git Source Control Management software so we can interact with repositories hosted on GitHub.

How to install Git SCM

Anytime you push code to GitHub, you must be authenticated so GitHub knows you are authorized to make changes. In this lesson we’ll learn how to authenticate with GitHub using SSH so we don’t have to enter our username and password each time we push code to GitHub.

How to authenticate with GitHub using SSH

When you find a bug in an open source project, you know exactly the change you want to make. Other times you just want to find a way to contribute. Either way, you’ll need to know how the project maintainers want to run the project and work with them to come up with an implementation for the fix/feature. And if you don't even know what project to start contributing to, check out [this blogpost](https://medium.com/@kentcdodds/what-open-source-project-should-i-contribute-to-7d50ecfe1cb4) for inspiration on how to identify a good project to contribute to.

Identifying How to Contribute to an Open Source Project on GitHub

You cannot push code to repositories that you don’t own or have sufficient permission to. So instead, you make your own copy of the repository by “forking” it. You are then free to make any changes you wish to your repository.

How to Fork and Clone a GitHub Repository

Before you start making your changes, you often need to set up your environment for the changes. This is where the repositories' contributing instructions come in really handy. In this lesson we’ll get our environment set up and ready for changes.
