In this part, you got to really make use of the Git plug-in! Here's a recap of what we've covered:
We identified an open source project, how it's displayed on Github, and how to look at reported issues that need fixing.
We cloned a repository with issues onto Eclipse.
We fixed issues in the code using the Eclipse debugger.
We created a new branch and pushed our changes back on Github.
Throughout the course, you've seen why an IDE like Eclipse is so useful, why you need to install a JVM, how to use certain key features, and finally, how to mobilize what you've learned to contribute to an open source project. Above all, you've gotten a little more hands-on practice working with Eclipse, which will be an asset as you move forward with Java development.
You're ready to take the end of part quiz and show that you've mastered the art of Eclipse!
