What is Git?

Git is a free and open source distributed version control system designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with speed and efficiency.

Git is easy to learn and has a tiny footprint with lightning fast performance. It outclasses SCM tools like Subversion, CVS, Perforce, and ClearCase with features like cheap local branching, convenient staging areas, and multiple workflows.

What is GitLab?

GitLab is an open source code repository and collaborative software development platform for large DevOps and DevSecOps projects. GitLab is free for individuals. GitLab offers a location for online code storage and capabilities for issue tracking and CI/CD. to learn more here

What is Markdown?

Markdown is a text-to-HTML conversion tool for web writers. Markdown allows you to write using an easy-to-read, easy-to-write plain text format, then convert it to structurally valid XHTML (or HTML). also since Markdown is easier to write than HTML it’s easier for most humans to read Markdown source than HTML source. However, HTML is more expressive (particularly regarding semantic tagging) and can achieve some specific effects that might be difficult or impossible in Markdown

this is the markdown codes that help us.

Fisrt
