[GETTING STARTED] Chapter, Issue and Topic Collection

[aleesteele]

⭐ 🚀 Hello and Welcome to The Turing Way! 🚀 ⭐

This issue accompanies the Git Good: Introduction to GitHub workshop developed by the Research Community Management team at The Alan Turing Institute. We're so glad you're here! 🎉

Note: While this issue was prepared for the Fall 2023 Enrichment Student cohort at the Alan Turing Institute, this issue is open to anyone interested in getting involved with The Turing Way!

Getting started

Any issue tagged with a good first issue is one that we think is a good place to start contributing to the project, whether it's fixing a bug, contributing to an ongoing discussion about a topic or idea, improve some underlying infrastructure beneath the project (there are always bits and bobs that we need help with improving!), or learning more about the project and community more broadly.
