About this lesson

This lesson explains why version control matters before we begin using Git. You will see how version control protects work, reduces mistakes, and makes collaboration safer and more predictable.

We will compare common file-saving habits with a version control workflow, highlight the problems Git solves, and build the mindset needed for the rest of the course.
