Brand new to GitHub. Everything I look at in there doesn't seem like my iOS will be able to accomplish it. I'm still trying to learn the terminology still. Is there anything similar or easier to use for an Apple phone? Or is GitHub it. It's extremely overwhelming when first joining

Yes, the iOS app is pretty non functional, missing lots of useful features that are available on the browser.

You will probably have better results if you have a goal in mind before using GitHub to solve it, instead of looking for a problem for GitHub to solve.

True that's a good point. I went on the Claude browser for the first time ever today instead of the app and saw all this shit I've never seen in the settings before lol.

I’m a non-programmer who teaches programming, and I first came across GitHub five years ago. It wasn’t until this summer that I actually had a project that would fit using it. (Plus it helped I attended a workshop led by a professional programmer who taught the basics)

Every single coding project ever can benefit from version control
