## GitHub

GitHub is the industry-standard platform for hosting and collaborating on code. Unblocking it allows students to publish their projects and build skills applicable to future careers; even supervised, time-limited access is valuable.

## Inspect Element / Developer Tools

Browser developer tools (e.g. Inspect Element) are recommended for web development projects, so that sites can be debugged and styled.

## Who are we?
