Mastering GitHub for Developers and DevOps

About this course

This specialization features Coursera Coach! A smarter way to learn with interactive, real-time conversations that help you test your knowledge, challenge assumptions, and deepen your understanding as you progress through the specialization. Master GitHub for Developers and DevOps by building a solid foundation in version control with Git. Start by learning Git basics like commits, branches, and rebasing, and move to advanced concepts such as staging and managing changes. As you dive into DevOps, you'll gain skills in code management, collaboration, and deployment using GitHub. Learn to create, clone, and push repositories, manage branches, resolve merge conflicts, and use advanced GitHub features like pull requests and code reviews, all while implementing DevOps practices with AWS. Next, focus on GitHub Actions to automate workflows, set triggers, and create custom actions. Build and optimize CI/CD pipelines and improve Docker container deployments. In the final section, integrate AI-powered tools like GitHub Copilot and ChatGPT into your development workflow to enhance coding efficiency with code generation, debugging, and optimization. By the end of the specialization, you will be proficient in using Git and GitHub, automating workflows, deploying code to production, and integrating AI tools into your development process.
