Git Source Control

Git is an essential tool for version control, enabling developers to track changes, collaborate on projects, and maintain organized workflows. Whether you're working on a solo project or contributing to open-source initiatives, Git provides a powerful, flexible way to manage your codebase.

Thanks to Linux (Crostini) support on ChromeOS, Git can be installed and used directly on Chromebooks, bringing professional-grade version control to these lightweight and versatile devices. This guide is designed to help you set up Git on ChromeOS and walk you through the basics of using it for version control and collaboration.

Whether you're a student exploring coding for the first time, a developer seeking a streamlined workflow, or a contributor to open-source projects, this tutorial will show you how to leverage Git effectively on ChromeOS. Let’s get started and make your Chromebook a hub for version-controlled development!
