You should access the QwikLabs tour and Google Cloud Platform (GCP) overview at https://www.qwiklabs.com/focuses/2794?parent=catalog.
This lab should be very easy -- you're basically following an online tutorial to learn how to use a software platform.
After finishing that exercise, complete this one: https://www.cloudskillsboost.google/focuses/563?parent=catalog. This will require a QwikLabs credit. Info on how to utilize credits will be provided in class. You can individually request 200 from https://services.google.com/fb/forms/googlecloudskillsbooststudenttrainingcreditsapplication/
Some additional challenges will be that you're going to be accepting this lab through Github Classroom and submitting your solution using git.
At the end of the second lab, edit a file called test.txt. Write your name into that file.
Then, in the gcloud shell run "cat test.txt" and take a screen shot.
You should name your image something like "lab1-finish-YOURNAME.png". You should then modify this README.md to display your image rather than the image I provided. This will evaluate your ability to:
- Complete the Qwiklab on using Google cloud
- Accepting a Github Classroom assignment
- Checkout out a Git repo
- Adding a file to the staging (
git add your-file-name.png) - Updating a Markdown file
- Commiting your changes (
git commit -a -m'your message here') - Pushing the changes to Github (
git push)
