Had a candid conversation, reminiscing about my time at IITMBS. We delved into challenged faced in the degree, the importance of internships, and how to navigate the job market. We also discussed the significance of networking and building connections in the industry. It was a great opportunity to share my experiences and also offer advice to current students. I hope that my insights can help them make informed decisions about their careers and inspire them to pursue their passions. Overall, it was a wonderful experience to connect with the IITMBS community and share my journey with them.

GitHub Seminar - Session Overview

GitHub Seminar - Interactive Session

• This was my first time teaching a seminar, and it was a great experience. I had the opportunity to teach the basics of GitHub to a cohort of around 30 students.
• The seminar was divided into two parts:
  • Session 1: An introduction to GitHub, covering the basics of version control, repositories, commits, branches, and pull requests.
  • Session 2: An interactive session where students practiced using GitHub, including creating repositories, making commits, and collaborating on projects.
• The seminar was well-received, and I received positive feedback from the students. Many of them expressed that they found the content helpful and engaging.

This was a collaboration with Sayan Ghosh. Where we created a comprehensive YouTube playlist aimed at demystifying Git for beginners.

• Watch the Playlist
• It’s a total of 5 videos, each covering a specific aspect of Git, from basic concepts to advanced features, including but not limited to:
  • What is Git?: An introduction to version control and the basics of Git.
  • Git Commands: A deep dive into essential Git commands and their usage.
  • Branching and Merging: Understanding how to work with branches and merge changes effectively.
  • Collaboration with Git: Best practices for collaborating on projects using Git.
  • Milestones - This is a specific video for a project that the students were working on, where we helped them set up Git for their project.

This series is designed to be accessible for beginners, providing a solid foundation in Git version control. It is particularly useful for students and professionals looking to enhance their collaboration skills in software development.
