This page is for students who missed some or all of an Open Source Comes to Campus event.
If you run into any trouble following this guide, feel free to email us or join us on IRC!
Laptop Setup
To set up your computer, go to our Laptop Setup page.
Intro to Open Source Tools
(insert link to student facing open source tools intro here)

At the event, we likely did some version of the Practicing Git activity. That's difficult to reproduce online (though we can try if you ask us on IRC!) so you might try the Git training mission instead.

Although the handout is phrased for working in pairs, you can just apply the questions to yourself. (Or find a person to partner with!
