    You explained is this in a simple way. Versioning was a simple concept and we had tools like svn, tfs etc. But they had to make it and the terminology confusing and more complex just to show this is an improvement or something brand new.

I had to subscribe solely based on this video alone and because your demo was so detailed and you are a phenomenal teacher. I will be sharing your channel with many others in my "newbie tech circle" and on my LinkedIn profile. Please keep pushing out these videos!! Also, if you have knowledge and expertise in QA Software Testing... there is a definite need on RUclips for someone with your voice and teaching style. Please consider creating videos for novice software testers like myself!! Happy YouTubing!!!

    Thanks for the video, nice and straightforward. Question, what options do you have for Desktop Apps for the various OSs. I use Mac, iPad, Windows and Android. When looking for apps on the various platforms some are free and others charge. I'm not looking to do anything complex, just a single storage location for my code files that will only be used by me (although would like to give others access so they can see my files and clone if desired). Appreciate any suggestions on what would be the simplest apps to use. Thanks.

    • @SkillFoundryIO
      @SkillFoundryIO  3 месяца назад

      I think that GitHub desktop is good enough for most people. I’ve also used tortoise and kraken in the past. Kraken is really nice but probably overkill for your situation.
      I don’t use Git tools on my mobile devices since I code on my laptop and desktop only so I can’t comment on those.
      Luckily most tools are free or cheap and many have trials, so try them out!
