Create Article : Connecting Cloud9 to Github

[zer0trip]

I'm willing to work on this because it was a learning experience for me as most documentation I found was outdated.

Someone else is more than welcome though.

@SeanFCC you might want to elaborate a little on what you mean by "connecting" c9 to GitHub. As for setting up your c9 work-space with a GitHub repo - you can do so in the same way as you would do on your own machine.

The set of commands are exactly same.

[zer0trip]

Is there an article showing 'the exact same set of commands' and do they also talk about how to access the command line on cloud9? As well as solutions to common issues?

@SeanFCC this article shows an overview of adding a git project to C9
https://github.com/FreeCodeCamp/FreeCodeCamp/wiki/Develop-Back-End-Project-locally-and-run-on-c9.io

and there are various git articles which show how git works. So i guess instead of "Connecting C9 to GH", it can be "Working with C9" or something in the line which would show how to get around with C9 (with images).
This can be used as a reference https://docs.c9.io/docs/

That article covers new setup and needs to be rewritten badly which I am willing to do. It is written also assuming the person knows their way around C9 which I did not. It also does not mention any common issues. One other thing, as someone coming in new the title tells me nothing if I am looking for setting up c9 and github.please feel free to close this one though if yoy feel that one covers the bases. Thank you for your time.

@SeanFCC sure. It would be really nice if you could improve the existing article.

Thanks for your contributions. 😃

[zer0trip]

Absolutely. Thanks for the feedback @abhisekp

@abhisekp What I've realized is that this article you mention is specifically about creating a workspace in C9 to work on backend tasks. I'm proposing a more general document on setting up C9 and Github. Which is basically step 1 in the current article. I would like to go ahead a submit a new article and then come back to that one to add some clarification to it. What do you think about that approach?

@SeanFCC @abhisekp Current status of this article? Are you going to improve the existing article?

[Rafase282]

What's the status on this?

I was using c9 as my development environments for node and ruby and I have explained some of it in a post I made and am more than happy to share that, installing Git and cloning a repo is one of the first things you should do, then there's setting up a run configuration. @SeanFCC whats going on??

Apologies, just realised this is all depreciated!
