Welcome to this overview of basic background information. Dialogflow is a powerful and user-friendly tool to support building a conversational agent, but needs some investment on your end to get acquainted. Git is a common tool used by many coding teams worldwide to develop code in tandem and facilitate its alignment. Getting to know git as part of this course will surely be of benefit to you in the longterm. The resources we refer to below should provide you with the adequate support to use them in the remainder of the project.
