How can I practice programming languages in GitHub?

Considering that you're a beginner make sure you properly understand how to use Git/GitHub. I can really recommend Udacity's course on git: How to Use Version Control in Git & GitHub Also GitHubs guides: Hello World · GitHub Guides Step 2: Finding a good repo If you feel comfortable with using git and github, then find some repositories within GitHub that you like the sound of. Considering that you're beginning it might be worth looking at smaller/simpler repos in the language(s) you are starting out with. A really good tool can be to go through https://github.com/trending to find trending repos by your preferred language. Alternatively think of a tool or application you like using and search to see if it is on GitHub.
