## Finish _Congratulations, you've completed this course and joined the world of developers!_ celebrate Here's a recap of your accomplishments: - You learned about GitHub, repositories, branches, commits, and pull requests. - You created a branch, a commit, and a pull request. - You merged a pull request. - You made your first contribution! :tada: ### What's next? If you'd like to make a profile README, use the quickstart instructions below or follow the instructions in the [Managing your profile README](https://docs.github.com/account-and-profile/setting-up-and-managing-your-github-profile/customizing-your-profile/managing-your-profile-readme) article. 1. Make a new public repository with a name that matches your GitHub username. 2. Create a file named `README.md` in its root. The "root" means not inside any folder in your repository. 3. Edit the contents of the `README.md` file. 4. If you created a new branch for your file, open and merge a pull request on your branch. 5.
