<h2 id="what-is-git-and-gitea">What is Git and Gitea?<a class="headerlink" href="#what-is-git-and-gitea" title="Permanent link">&para;</a></h2>
<p><strong>Git</strong> is a tool that helps people work together on projects by tracking changes to files. Think of it like "track changes" in Microsoft Word, but much more powerful.</p>
<p><strong>Gitea</strong> is a website that hosts Git projects, making it easy to share and collaborate. It's like Google Drive, but specifically designed for code and documentation projects.</p>
