Posting Issues

The absolute best way to ask for help in this course is to utilize the Issues board feature. This is ideal because:

  1. Everyone has access to your question, and can help respond.
  2. It is easier for your instructor to reply to Issues than to e-mails.
  3. Neat-O If you push changes to GitHub, your instructor has access to your code and can provide specific solutions, when/where/how directly into your site code.
