GitHub for Vibe 101

What this is

This is the Vibe 101 checkpoint for pushing your project to GitHub.

Use the full GitHub reference if you need a deeper explanation.

Why it matters

Vercel deploys from GitHub. If the code is not pushed, the learner cannot ship cleanly.

GitHub also makes it easier for tutors to inspect the project when the learner is stuck.

What to do

Do this:

1. Create or open the GitHub account.
2. Create one repository for the project.
3. Push the local project.
4. Open GitHub and confirm the files are visible.
5. Share the repo link with the tutor if help is needed.

Use this prompt if the learner needs guidance:

Help me push my local project to GitHub step by step.

Explain:
- which terminal to use
- which commands to run
- how to check that the code reached GitHub

The learner should see files like:

• package.json
• src
• app
• public

Common mistakes

• Using the wrong GitHub account.
• Pushing to the wrong repository.
• Forgetting to push the latest code before deploying.
• Uploading files manually instead of learning the push flow.
• Pushing node_modules.
