### Fetching changes from DBC's master repo
Sometimes we will make changes to the original repository to clarify instructions. You will need to fetch these changes from the master branch when we announce changes on the google+ community.
NOTE: You will have two separate repositories in Github for Unit 1: Your Github.io site and your phase_0_unit_1 repository.

## Fetching changes from DBC's master repo
Sometimes we will make changes to the original (Devbootcamp) repository to clarify instructions or add new curriculum. You will need to "fetch" these changes from the master branch when we announce changes on the google+ community. Follow [these](https://github.com/Devbootcamp/phase_0_handbook/blob/master/fetching_changes.md) directions to do this. If you are using a windows or linux, you will need to use the command line instructions.

- If you are doing this from the Github Desktop App, follow [these](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11394349/upstream-pulls-with-the-github-desktop-client
)
directions.
- If you are doing it from the command line, follow [these](https://help.github.com/articles/syncing-a-fork) directions.

## Remember your Unit Goals!
- Pair at least once this week with a member of your accountability group. *You need to pair 3 times on your own this unit*
- Give feedback for each person you paired with. *You need to submit at least 5 pieces of feedback in this unit*
- Rate at least 7 pieces of [Meta Feedback](https://socrates.devbootcamp.com/feedback) on Socrates. *You need to rate 20 pieces of feedback per unit*
- Make sure you've signed up for GPS 1.1 and 1.2 (These must be done in a session with guide. They may not be done any other way, so make sure you sign up early!)

# HTML and CSS cont.

Please do not start week 2 until May 19. We will make changes to curriculum and update DBC's master repository.

This week you will go into more depth on HTML and CSS and get more practice. You will also get to play with Dev Tools and consider the implications of responsive Design. Overall, this week's curriculum should give you the opportunity to go into more depth with HTML and have fun solidifying your knowledge!

## Sync DBC's Changes
####It's time to sync changes from DevBootcamp's phase_0_unit 1 master repo!
Follow [these instructions](https://github.com/Devbootcamp/phase_0_handbook/blob/master/fetching_changes.md)!

## Working through the challenges
Once you have the entire local repository on your computer, you don't need to read the challenges on github anymore (although we admit, it's prettier). You can open the entire repository in sublime and read the challenges in their original markdown. It will also help you find any link issues, since you can see where they are pointing. If you do find broken links, please let us by posting on the community, but also try to figure out a fix. It will help your markdown skills!
