+- Forking is how you can clone / copy a repository that is outside of your GitHub account, into your github account.
- This will give you a "forked" copy of the repository that is now effectively totally your own repository.

Follow the written instructions and understand that the screenshots might show things like pushing to `wlfmnstr/the-heartbroken-dev-tier-1` when your screen will look more like `your-username/the-heartbroken-dev-tier-1`.
-On YOUR new forked repository (NOT MINE, use the one in your github account that you just created in the previous steps) - you are going to create a directory for your resume files and upload them.
+tl;dr - trust the instructions as the source of truth and use the screenshots as helpful examples.
-The right way to do this is to first CLONE the repository (again, clone your fork, not my upstream original repo). Here are the steps to do this:
+…
-1. Coming soon...
+Okay, now, we're going to practice collaborating on a github repository!
+
+The flow will look something like this:
+
+1. Fork the repo to you personal GitHub account
+2. Clone your forked repo to your local machine
+3. Add a directory and resume files to your local copy of the repo
+4. Commit the changes (the new files and directory you added) to your local repo
+5. Pushes those changes from your local repo to the remote repo (your fork still)
+6. Create Pull Request from your fork to my original repo, which is the “upstream” repo in this context.
+
+Here’s a diagram (if this is helpful, great! If its just more confusion, don’t sweat it, you don’t need to understand the diagram right now).
+
+
+
+#### Clone Your Fork
+
+1. After you’ve forked the “upstream” repository and have navigated to **your** forked repo on GitHub, copy the git url from the repository page. Screenshot: 
+2. In your command prompt, navigate to the location you want to clone your repository to in your file system, then run the command `git clone` followed by the url you copied. In my case that looks like this: 
+
+ This will pull down the repo to you computer, creating a directory wherever you run the command, named whatever the repository you are cloning is named. In this case, the directory it created was called `the-heartbroken-dev-tier-1`.
+
+3. List the contents of the directory you’re in to confirm the clone operation was successful: 
+ (I also used the `|` pipe and `grep` commands in my example to filter the results of running the list contents command `ls` to just results the contained `the-heart`. If you’re interested, you can read about pipe and grep in linux here: https://faculty.winthrop.edu/dannellys/csci208lab/lab09.htm)
+
+#### Open the Repository You Cloned
+
+Now that you’ve got a local copy of the repo, let’s open it up in our code editor of choice, VS Code.
+
+1. Open VS Code and click `file` > `open folder` (might look a little different on windows): 
+2. Then select the directory you just created when you cloned the repo and click “open”: 
+3. You should have the repository open in VS Code now: 
+
+#### Create a Directory for Your Resume and Add Your Files to it
+
+Now we want to add some of your code to this repository. We’ll use the html and css files your created for the pre-work assignments here. Follow these steps:
+
+1. Create a directory inside of `student-resumes` using the naming convention: `-resume`. You can do this by right clicking on the `student-resumes` directory in the *File Explorer* tab of VSCode, like so:
+ 1. Go to File Explorer 
+ 2. Create the new directory (vs code calls it a folder): 
+ 3. Name it following the described naming convention: 
+ 4. Add your resume files - you can do this from the command line if you know how, or you can drag & drop like I did: 
+
+#### Commit and Push Your Changes
+
+Ok, now we’ve made changes to our local repository, and we should “push” these changes to our remote repository so they aren’t just on our computer.
+
+1. From your command prompt, navigate to this repository’s directory, and add the new files and changes to the git “staging area.” Do this with the `git add` command. Some notes:
+ 1. You can see what the state of your repository is, including changed files and what has been added to the staging area by running `git status`: 
+ 2. `git add` needs an additional argument passed to it: the specific files you want to add. You can specify the files specifically, one at a time, or multiple other ways.
+ 3. A nice shortcut if you want to add everything that’s been updated to the staging area is the `.` specifier, which says “the things in my current *working directory*” (working directory just means the directory you’ve currently navigated to in your command prompt).
+ 4. So, the end result is (assuming you’ve navigated to your repository folder): `git add .` 
+ 5. Run `git status` again and see that the files have been staged and are ready to be “committed”: 
+2. Now we want to actually commit these staged changes. Having the staging area is nice because sometimes you made LOTS of changes and only want to commit some of them and it helps to sort everything out. Like laying your camping items out on the floor before putting them into your backpack or car. Simply run the “commit” command to create a commit of your staged changes. The command is `git commit` but we want to include a “commit message” too!
+ 1. Do this by also passing the `-m` command “flag” to the git commit command, followed by your commit message in quotes like: `"My commit message"`.
+ 2. The end result should look like: `git commit -m "Adds Caseys Resume directory and files"`.
+ 3. You can run git status afterwards to see the new state of the repository: 
+3. Now we want to “push” or local repository which contains the new commit we just made to our remote repository in github. Do this with the `git push` command. You shouldn’t need anything else, though it may require you to login/authenticate…
+ 1. [Here’s a link](https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/keeping-your-account-and-data-secure/managing-your-personal-access-tokens#using-a-personal-access-token-on-the-command-line) on how to use personal access tokens on the command line in case you weren’t already prompted to login when cloning the repository in previous steps.
+ 2. A personal access token is like a password you can use with your username to login to github.
+ 3. All of this might be irrelevant if you’ve already successfully logged in, and I haven’t really worked through writing this part out for students, so come see me or check in the discord chat for your cohort to see how students resolved issue if they ran into them around logging into github on the command line!
+
+
+ Assuming you’re logged in correctly and attempting to push to the correct repo, you should get a success message when running `git push` (yours will look a little different for you, but you should get a success message after pushing to YOUR fork): 
+
+
+#### Create a Pull Request from your fork to my Upstream repo
+
+Okay, lastly we are going to request to pull your changes you made on your copy of the repo into my original “upstream” repo. Do this from the GitHub website.
+1. Navigate to your forked version of the repository. It should state that there are changes and it is ahead of the upstream repo by some commits, click on the “_ commit ahead of” link: 
+2. This will take you to a page that is the start of creating a pull request, click the “Create pull request” button: 
+3. Type in some helpful additional details on the pull request, like what changes are included, etc. and then click “create pull request” one again! 
+4. You should now see the created pull request page, which will be in a state of “waiting for review” which just means you can’t merge it yet, but the owners of the repository you are request to pull your changes into have been notified and can review your changes and merge the PR when they are ready!
+
+
+#### PHEW!
+
+Alright, you’ve done it! That was probably a lot of stuff for a lot of you, but you’ve successfully navigated the command line, wrapped your head around git and github and even used it to make what’s possibly your first ever PRs in your career…. HELL YEAH!

Fluffy the Labradoodle | A Life Full of Wags and Fun
Hello, I'm a Principal Software Engineer with a heart recently shattered into more pieces than a monolithic application being refactored into microservices. Despite the deep fissures in my heart, my spirit for coding and teaching burns brighter than a well-optimized algorithm. My journey through the valley of heartbreak has led me to a profound realization: healing is found not by looking inward but by reaching outward. With a career spent helming engineering projects in Fortune 10 enterprises, I've decided to pivot my expertise towards something infinitely more valuable—teaching you to code.

Personal Statement
+
In the darkest of times, when the code of my life seemed riddled with bugs, I found my purpose illuminated by the glow of my IDE. I've learned that the path to mending a broken heart is paved with curly braces, semicolons, and the smiles of those I can help along the way. My mission is simple: to offer you my time, my knowledge, and perhaps, a piece of my heart, as we embark on this journey of learning and healing together. I'm not looking for payment, accolades, or even recognition—I'm searching for connection, for meaning, and for the chance to make a difference in your life.
+
If you're willing to commit to this journey, I promise to be there every step of the way, from "Hello, World!" to deploying your first app. Let's build something beautiful together, not just in code, but in the very fabric of our lives.
+
Last but not least, I love you all. :)

Because sometimes, the most endearing code is written with a broken heart... but a hopeful spirit.
Full time employment working as a Site Technician. Responsibilities included handling customer
+ queries (in person, by email or by phone), resolving technical issues either on site or remotely, and
+ giving guidance and support to users struggling to use software. During this time I was also managing
+ the schools websites and learning to code.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
L.E.A.D. IT Services: January 2022 – June 2022
+
This role involved managing and developing websites for schools within the L.E.A.D. Academy Trust,
+ external schools, and Cubowork.com. Responsibilities included executing website designs, collaborating
+ with clients to meet launch deadlines, and enhancing admin panel efficiency through custom plugins on
+ WordPress. Operating on a Windows server with Plesk, tasks extended to SSL certificate management, DNS
+ record editing, and ensuring plugin and CMS versions remained updated. Notably, I crafted plugins
+ employing custom post types to streamline administrative tasks and present content seamlessly on the
+ frontend using PHP, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. One such plugin organized vacancies chronologically,
+ automatically transitioning posts to draft status upon reaching an end date, effectively managing
+ content visibility.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
Magdalen Medical Publishing: June 2022 – August 2023
+
During my time as a Junior Web Developer, I was responsible for implementing new features within
+ front-end and CMS systems, following a bi-weekly release schedule. Additionally, I handled bug fixes
+ and issue resolutions across six journals and seven iw websites. Notably, a significant achievement
+ during this period was learning GatsbyJS and ReactJS as part of the iw website redevelopment project,
+ which greatly enhanced my professional capabilities.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
Magdalen Medical Publishing: August 2023 – Present
+
My responsibilities at MMP haven't fundamentally shifted since my promotion, but I've taken on
+ leadership roles in several projects aimed at enhancing our platform's architecture. Notably, I
+ spearheaded the initiative to streamline our infrastructure by deploying the six journals as separate
+ Docker containers from a unified repository onto AWS. This initiative significantly enhanced the
+ workflow for our development team, allowing us to host the sites locally in Docker containers from a
+ centralized repository. Through this project, I've honed my expertise with AWS and Docker, and I'm
+ eager to apply these skills to similar projects, such as optimizing the Gatsby sites I developed
+ earlier.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
Hobbies & Interests
+
My hobbies and interests are computer gaming, going to the gym, board/tabletop games,
+ reading, music and
+ anime. I'm currently 530 episodes into One Piece and I'm loving it! My favourite character is Usopp because
+ he's hilarious!
