<h2>1. Project management</h2>
</header>
<section>
<p>This week I worked on defining my final project idea and started to getting used to the documentation process.</p>
</section>

<h3>My journey</h3>
<p>I'm discovering the Git and GitLab "universes". All this is completely new for me so I had to search for several tutorials explaining it in a "for dummies" way !</p>
<p>I found videos <strong><u>in french</u></strong> made by <a href="https://grafikart.fr/" target="_blank">Grafikart</a> that are really well done. I knew them already as they helped me learn more about creating websites by coding several years ago (at least 10).</p>
<p>These tutorials can be found on Youtube <a href="https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLjwdMgw5TTLXuY5i7RW0QqGdW0NZntqiP&si=DFfrT0y93gfqR4mq">here</a>.</p>
<p>I'm used to document on paper so I prepared a notebook (that I customed with cat stickers and self-cutted separators :) ) in which I added a planner for each week (that I try to follow, but not always succeed to it ! ^^')</p>
<p>After writing my notes in the notebook (taken about Git, such as the basic commands) I write them down here. Starting with paper and pens helps me to better visualize the informations, especially by adding colors and icons.</p>

<h3>Learning Git</h3>
<p>First I watched a short 5min video about what it is. It still is a bit unclear for me on why to use Git but I'm sure it will get clearer once I'll use it regularly.</p>
<p>We've already installed Git on my computer with my instructor, Sylvain Denis, but as I didn't take notes nor remember the steps, I watched and followed the Grafikart video (in french) on how to install it.</p>
<p>I've learned how to check that everything is well installed on the computer by using " git help + enter"</p>
<p>After that, I learned how to add a folder with Windows "cmd" and to initialize Git in it. A good information was to tell me that I don't have to push the whole folder on my online repository as the ".git" folder contains too many files and is not needed.</p>
<p>Next step was to configure my user name and email by using "git config --global user.name" and "git config --global user.email".</p>
<p>It still isn't easy to find my way in the Git universe and its use so I have to continue learning about it step-by-step !</P>

<h3>My Project</h3>
<p>I searched for images of existing pet items to get inspired and made a moodboard with them.</p>
