Next Steps

The goal of this book was to get you up and running quickly with git and GitHub and provide you a fundamental understanding of core concepts. There are many things we have not covered. We encourage you to review the book and get comfortable using git. Advanced git topics such as branching, merging and conflict resolution can be difficult even for experienced developers, and you will get a chance to explore all those topics in the future.

Hi! I'm LSBot. I'm here to help you understand this chapter content with fast , focused answers. Any code from the editor will be automatically included with your question.

Ask me about concepts, examples, or anything you'd like clarified from this chapter. I can explain complex topics, provide examples, or help connect ideas.

Switch to Deep Dive mode if you want comprehensive answers across the entire curriculum. Responses may take longer, but I'll draw on the entire Launch School curriculum to give you a fuller picture.

Code Blocks

You can write code blocks using three backticks (```) followed by the language you want to show. For instance, if you wanted to write a Ruby code block you would write:

```ruby
class Foo
end
```

class Foo
end

You can also leave out the language identifier, doing this will make it so your code isn't highlighted at all, and all text will be white with no coloring.

```
class Bar
end
```

class Bar
end

Highlighting

You may highlight lines within your code blocks. This is a different type of highlighting, and isn't related to how the code within your code block may be colored depending on the language identifier used.
To highlight one or more lines of code, add # highlight on a separate line just before the first line you wish to highlight. To end highlighting, add # endhighlight on a separate line immediately after the last line you wish to highlight.

```ruby
def say_hello_world
# highlight
  puts 'Hello World!!!'
# endhighlight
end
```

def say_hello_world
# highlight
  puts 'Hello World!!!'
# endhighlight
end
