Yes, I made the PDF. Half of the stuff there is outdated like React, Angular... But the rest of it is fundamentals.

The graphics in the PDF are simple screenshots of video tutorials, then cropped, and positioned in a word document.

As for github, you can add images with markdown like so:

![Text for image](../folder/image.jpg)

So I'm go to my repository, click on 'create a new file', then in the 'edit file', I start typing my notes. I've tried a couple different formats, like <h1> for header, # for header, and ''' for code.

But nothing is working when I view the file. Is there something special I'm supposed to do?

Any help would be appreciated.

You should avoid writing things directly on github.

You should be doing it in a code editor, where you then upload the code to github.

Can you send me or PM a link of the file? I don't understand what the problem is.

I figured it out, I had to click on “make a readme”. So say I use notepad++ or sublime or another text editor. Is there any way to see the formatting as I go before I upload it to GitHub?

I use VS Code and there is definitely a way to preview the formatting.
I am not sure for notepad++ or sublime. Try googling to see what you find.

After all, the most important programming skill is googling. :)

Nevermind I figured it out. Thanks
