Warm Up

You must warm up before participating in an adventure. This is to make sure you get the basic idea of the game before joining us...

Each step of the adventure, you will do the same thing:

  1. Create a directory for that step of the adventure
  2. Add a README file (and anything else you want...)
  3. Send a pull request

That's it! Complete those steps for each of the 21 days of the challenge, and you've successfully completed the challenge - and will be welcomed to [[RubySteps Heroes' Hall|Heroes-Hall]].

You'll find the warmup area in the 1_warmup folder. You can see there how many people who have already done the warmup, so you have plenty of examples to follow.

To successfully complete your warmup, you'll need to create a minimum of two directories, with a README.md for each one.

  • 1_warmup/<your-github-username>/01/README.md
  • 1_warmup/<your-github-username>/02/README.md

01 is your first warmup. 02 is your second warmup. Easy, right? :)

If you like, you may give the warmup folders descriptive names. All that matters is that you prefix them with a two-digit representation of the step.

Valid sub-directory names:

  • 01
  • 02_pat
  • 03_pat_loves_to_code

Invalid sub-directory names:

  • 1
  • one
  • pat_01

You must send each warmup in a separate pull request. Following the suggested git workflow will make things easier on you.

Example pull requests:

Once your pull request has been accepted, you're all warmed up and ready to join us on our next adventure...
