Gitbook UI and change approval process training

 

To enable the maximum number of people to collaborate on the building of the GovStack Specifications, and other materials for the GovStack project, in a controlled manner, we store the content in GitHub (www.github.com) and use a tool called Gitbook (www.gitbook.com) to manage it.

By the end of this training, you will;

  • Understand how the GovStack project organizes and approves changes to the GovStack Specifications

  • Propose changes to the specifications via the GitBook UI

  • Propose changes to the specifications via GitHub Pull Requests, if you prefer that method.

There are two training videos here, the first is of basic “how to propose a change using GitBook” and a second one for Building Block Leads and others who need to approve proposed changes and merge them into our main work.
