Because of being invited to take part in a Rails Girls event, I created two presentations. Both of them are intended to be used as short introductions (to Ruby and Git, respectively).

Take a look if you’d like to use them to train other beginners, possibly at an another Rails Girls event.

Introduction to Ruby

It tries to cover:

• Variables;
• simple calculations;
• conditions;
• functions;
• collections;
• symbols;
• classes.

Introduction to Git

It goes through the basic workflow:

1. Cloning the repository (git clone).
2. Working on files.
3. What’s the situation? (git status)
4. What exactly have I done? (git diff)
5. I want to share these changes (git add)
6. Double-checking (git diff --cached)
7. Making a commit (git commit)
8. Sharing your changes (git push)
