+Setting up your development environment
+---------------------------------------
+
+Using *git* as your source control and GitHub or GitLab as your online repo is highly recommended. This allows you to keep track of the changes you make so that in the case something breaks, you can revert back to a working version and compare the versions to see which change may have introduced the breakage.
