It was great, this course was easy to follow, and provided a good amount of knowledge about markdown files, and its syntax, It could have been little comprehensive, and covered all aspects of markdown, but it still a good course to begin with. |

I've been using GitHub for work for years now and did not realize that I could use markdown in issues and pull requests! Thanks for this course! |

I've been using GitHub for work for years now and never realized that I could use Markdown in issues and pull requests! This course has been a real eye-opener. The ability to format text, add images, create task lists, and include code snippets directly within issues and PRs makes collaboration so much clearer and more efficient. I’m excited to start applying these skills immediately. Markdown not only helps keep discussions organized but also improves the overall readability and professionalism of our documentation and communication. Thanks so much for putting together this course—it’s been incredibly helpful! |

A good starter for markdown, but I suggest some examples of well-known and well-documented repositories as part of the course to show learners best practices. |

I'm always a fan of learning more. Do you happen to have any repos you'd recommend? |

Good starter course on Markdown ❤️ But I feel that both Learn modules and this exercise are missing some very basic and often needed code blocks, such as tables, links and escape characters. |

Ohhh yeah, tables would really be a good one to cover in an intro course. They're a liiiiiitle tricky to get right the first couple times, but once you do, it's easy to get better at making them. This course did cover links, SORT OF. Not directly. With the Step 2, for Images. I think this course could be enhanced by including links in the same step with images. Or just point out they're similar. |

The course proved incredibly helpful in teaching me the markdown syntax and pull-request concepts. I would recommend incorporating small screenshots for each step in the first chapter to make it more accessible for beginners. |

This course provides a very approachable method to learning the basics of markdown. Not only that, it takes you seamlessly through the paces of common GitHub activities like creating a repo, branching, editing files, commits, and merges. And, if you have a keen eye, you can see and understand what those GitHub actions are doing as you both contribute to your PR in real time. 😉 👏 well done GitHub Tips:As long as you follow the instructions to use separate browser tabs for the instructions and editing the index.md file in the beginning + throughout, you will be successful. I personally prefer separate browser windows (instead of tabs), that way I am able to work split screen.
I'm somewhat experienced with markdown already from collaborating on project teams over the years. I enjoy creating Pull Request templates for my projects, so it is nice to see these items covered in this course, with practical examples and reasons to use them. I know many dev teams would benefit from taking this course. Especially if it's just for fun! Feedback:While stepping through some of the instructions, I noticed there are other ways of accomplishing a task in a step. For example, Images. You can totally use the Copy/Paste function and GitHub automatically generates the markdown for you, e.g., 💞 I really enjoyed this experience overall. Thank you. |

This course is incredibly good. I just recently came to GitHub and I had fun attending this course, the instructions were clear and I learned a lot. Thanks for this opportunity! ❤️ |

Overall I'm really pleased with this course. Some of the steps in Step 1 could use some more details to avoid confusion. For example a note to submit the PR before the edit functionality is available. In my frustration I ended up merging the PR which threw things off -- it would be helpful if there was a warning not to merge the PR. In Step 2, it could be helpful to emphasize in this pull request (maybe even add an emoji). Possibly also a reminder note in the line for Commit your changes Update: To others, the key is the Github Actions workflows which hint at which branch they hook in on. Live and learn! |

It gave me a hard time for the start.. but I realized after a while that I couldn't edit the index.md file without first selecting a branch so when when I did so, everything else was so simple.. thanks a lot for the course! |

Please be more specific about what exactly you’re referring to when mentioning branches, files, or actions. Clearer labels or definitions would reduce confusion. Adding more example images or screenshots would really help visual learners follow along step-by-step. It’s important to clarify when learners can use their own code versus when the tutorial expects the exact code you provide. This would prevent frustration when the system doesn’t accept valid alternative answers. |
