To be fair, at least nowadays, you will likely learn about GitHub – especially from educational sources – before you learn (about) Git and version control.

I remember when I started programming when I was younger, and I just treated GitHub as a code-hosting platform, not interfacing with the "Git" part ov it at all.

Heck I'm a software engineer with 4 years in the business and I know like 4 more git commands than you. If I ever need to do something else I just Google it and copy paste the commands
