For example:

git clone https://github.com/this-is-you/first-contributions.git

where this-is-you is your GitHub username. Here you're copying the contents of the first-contributions repository on GitHub to your computer.

Step 4 :- Create a branch

Change to the repository directory on your computer (if you are not already there):

cd first-contributions

Now create a branch using the git switch command:

git switch -c your-new-branch-name

For example:

git switch -c add-alonzo-church

Step 5 :- Make necessary changes and commit those changes

Now open Contributors.md file in a text editor, add your name to it. Don't add it at the beginning or end of the file. Put it anywhere in between. Now, save the file.

If you go to the project directory and execute the command git status, you'll see there are changes.

Add those changes to the branch you just created using the git add command:

git add Contributors.md

Now commit those changes using the git commit command:

git commit -m "Add your-name to Contributors list"

replacing your-name with your name.

Step 6 :- Push changes to GitHub

Push your changes using the command git push:

git push origin -u your-branch-name

replacing your-branch-name with the name of the branch you created earlier.

What really is Vanilla JavaScript?

Vanilla is when something does not have any special or extra features; it is ordinary , pure or standard.

Vanilla script is the word used to describe pure JavaScript that does not include any other libraries. It is one of the lightest weight frameworks ever.Both learning and using it are really simple and easy.

The vanilla script can be used to develop major and impactful applications as well as websites.

Why should you learn vanilla JS as a beginner?

  • You won't regret spending your valuable time learning Vanilla JavaScript.Not only does it contains the word vanilla, but it will have a beneficial impact on programming skills.

  • If you research the term “vanilla JavaScript”, you might run into some confusion; however, all you need to know is that vanilla JavaScript is used to refer to the native, standards-based, non-extended version.

  • There is no difference between vanilla JavaScript and JavaScript, it’s just there to emphasize the usage of plain JavaScript without the use of libraries and frameworks.

  • Compared to many other programming languages, JavaScript offers one of the more beginner-friendly entry points into the world of coding.

  • The great thing about it is that it comes installed on every modern web browser—there’s no need to set up any kind of development environment, which means you can start coding with JavaScript right away!
