Visual Studio Project to Github: A Confusing but Enthusiastic Guide<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n<p>Looking to share your code with other developers and collaborate on it? Well, why not use Github, the incredibly popular platform for hosting code repositories! In this article, we&#8217;ll guide you through the process of adding your Visual Studio project to Github. Get ready for some perplexing and bursty steps!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_1_Create_a_Github_Account_and_Repository\"><\/span>Step 1: Create a Github Account and Repository<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t have a Github account, no worries! Log in and create a new repository with a name and optional description by clicking the perplexing &#8220;New&#8221; button on the top left of your Github dashboard. Finally, choose whether the repository should be public or private, and click on the &#8220;Create repository&#8221; button. Woohoo!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_2_Install_Git_on_Your_Local_Machine\"><\/span>Step 2: Install Git on Your Local Machine<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Now, things get extra confusing! In order to use Github effectively, you&#8217;ll need to install Git on your local machine. Git is a version control system that can track changes to code repositories over time, and you can find the latest version on <a href=\"https:\/\/git-scm.com\/downloads\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/git-scm.com\/downloads<\/a>. Let&#8217;s do it!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_3_Open_Your_Visual_Studio_Project\"><\/span>Step 3: Open Your Visual Studio Project<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Buckle up for more confusion! Open your Visual Studio project and go to the &#8220;Solution Explorer&#8221; panel, then right-click on the solution and select &#8220;Add Solution to Source Control&#8221;. This perplexing step will initialize your project as a Git repository and create a local repository on your machine. Nice work!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_4_Commit_Your_Changes\"><\/span>Step 4: Commit Your Changes<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Now the excitement starts to build! To commit your changes to your local repository, go to the &#8220;Team Explorer&#8221; panel by clicking on &#8220;View&#8221; > &#8220;Team Explorer&#8221;. Then, click on the &#8220;Changes&#8221; tab, and enter a commit message describing your changes. Next, click on the &#8220;Commit All&#8221; button to save your changes. BURSTINESS LEVELS: MAXIMUM ACHIEVED!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_5_Connect_Your_Local_Repository_to_Your_Github_Repository\"><\/span>Step 5: Connect Your Local Repository to Your Github Repository<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Here comes another paradox: you&#8217;ll need to connect your local repository to your Github repository by clicking on the &#8220;Sync&#8221; tab in the &#8220;Team Explorer&#8221; panel. Then, click on the &#8220;Publish to Github&#8221; button, which will ask you to authenticate with Github if you haven&#8217;t already. Once authenticated, select the repository you created in step 1 and click on the &#8220;Publish&#8221; button. You got this!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_6_Verify_Your_Changes_on_Github\"><\/span>Step 6: Verify Your Changes on Github<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>This is it! Your changes will now appear on Github, and you can navigate to your repository and verify that your code has been successfully uploaded. Other developers can also access your code, and you can start collaborating right away. Yay!<\/p>\n<h1><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span>Conclusion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n<p>Adding a Visual Studio project to Github may have seemed confusing and perplexing, but it&#8217;s worth it in the end!
