Workshops
Throughout the course, there are several workshops essential for the bachelor's thesis; therefore, it is expected that all group members attend. If the scheduled time does not work, the group should find an alternative time when everyone can be present.
Workshop - GIT
During the workshop:
- The GIT workshop begins with a joint lecture (pdf, recording, updated 2024-01-16)
- After the first lecture, we will work through common problems on the whiteboard or on computers. Before the second lecture, students will complete labs using GIT to better grasp the content of the advanced section.
