Where to read Code? or Best practices to Learn Code?

WrCombs

I was told the best way to learn coding is to practice coding, and read ALOT OF CODE
well, I have no idea where to do that.
So, Any ideas on places I could just sit and read code when I'm not learning code?
I know if you press F12 on websites you can see the source code for that website, So I've been looking at that on websites, just scanning through them .

But any other Ideas?

You could probably read code until the end of time on github

I was just going to say GitHub as well.

WrCombs

is that open source ?
I've heard the name a few times but never really messed with it.

GitHub is the place that a lot of open source projects use to store their code.

I believe @JaredBusch uses GitHub a lot, right?

If you're looking at getting into programming, I'd highly recommend learning to use git (no prize for guessing where GitHub got it's name.)

Github and Gitlab both.

I'm just learning something new - Someone told me I should try coding so I figured what bad could it do for me to look at it and do a few lessons.

I'm guessing here<--! because I honestly dont know... I've only see it around a bunch --> - that GitHub got it's name from codes like -

git https://github.com/getsomeradomcode/fromthisperson/himom

?

A lot of us have things on GitHub as well, and tend to be much simpler as they're things like update or installation scripts:
https://github.com/Jarli01/xenorchestra_updater
https://github.com/travisdh1/FedPiHSecDNS

I can't find @scottalanmiller's stuff for some reason.
