Git Practice

Let's practice Git!

Overview

This repository is designed to help newbies practice using Git and GitHub by creating a simple todo app. Each participant will check out their own branch from the main branch, where they will work on their respective todo app in a directory named after their own name. The directory will also contain READMD.md file to provide some information about themselves. Finally, each participant will add a link to their directory in Contributors section of the root README.md file.
