in plain english

GitHub Training Kit is a collection of open source learning materials for Git and GitHub, maintained by GitHub's Professional Services team. The repository currently focuses on cheat sheets: quick reference cards that summarize common Git and GitHub commands and concepts in a compact, printable format. The content is built using Jekyll, a tool that converts Markdown text files into a website, and styled with GitHub's own Primer CSS framework. The site can be packaged and served from a local web server, which is useful for organizations that want to host the materials behind a firewall for internal training. The project is openly licensed: the written content uses a Creative Commons license that allows reuse with attribution, and the code used to build the site is released into the public domain. Contributions from the community are welcome, and the repository includes a contributing guide for anyone who wants to help improve or expand the materials.
