You can use any other Git GUI client or use Git completely via the terminal. However, using the terminal is **not recommended for git inexperienced users**! ::: 1. Download and install GitHub Desktop from [desktop.github.com](https://desktop.github.com/) 2. After the installation process GitHub Desktop will start an onboarding process. It'll ask you for your GitHub account, feel free to skip this by clicking the "Skip this step" link. ![](https://i.imgur.com/YuU0xq4.png) 3. Afterwards you'll be asked to configure Git. Choose "Configure it manually" and enter the same username and email you already used for the Panascais Gitlab Account. 4. Finish the onboarding and close the program afterwards ## Install an editor You can use any text editor to work on Panascais projects. However, we work with and recommend [Visual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/). ## Next Step Your work environment is now fully set up. You now need to create and link a SSH key to your Gitlab account.
