If you are learning GIT you should have it already installed on your windows machine. If you already do have it you can run GIT BASH. Similar to Windows Command window but with GIT BASH you use unix/linux/ios commands.

If you don't have it you can download it here -> https://git-scm.com/ - follow default prompts

GitHub-Basics course https://teamtreehouse.com/library/github-basics. Git-Basics course https://teamtreehouse.com/library/git-basics.

I recommend taking both courses before you take a specific source for github for android.

Thanks, Bogdan

Hello m8,

Console is only available in UNIX based OS. If you do not have access to a mac or a Linux machine, install a virtual machine with Ubuntu. (Best one to start.)

Good Luck!
