All source code is written in java in java-code directory. But you can use any language of your choice just make sure files are structured.
If you're not comfortable with command line, here are tutorials using GUI tools.
If you don't have git on your machine, install it.
Fork this repository by clicking on the fork button on the top of this page. This will create a copy of this repository in your account.
Now clone the forked repository to your machine. Go to your GitHub account, open the forked repository, click on the code button and then click the copy to clipboard icon.
Open a terminal and run the following git command:
git clone "url you just copied"
where "url you just copied" (without the quotation marks) is the url to this repository (your fork of this project). See the previous steps to obtain the url.
For example:
git clone <url>
Change to the repository directory on your computer (if you are not already there):
cd DSA_Cohort
Now create a branch using the git switch command:
git switch -c your-new-branch-name
For example:
git switch -c add-vasu-jhawar
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 Vasu to Contributors.md"
replacing your-name with your name.
Push your changes using the command git push:
git push -u origin your-branch-name
replacing your-branch-name with the name of the branch you created earlier.
