Git can be confusing to learn, but is an essential tool for coders to comprehend. Devlands takes a brand new approach to introduce newcomers to the world of Git and build up their confidence.

I never understood what Git & GitHub were really about. I think Devlands would be really helpful for young coders, computer science teachers, & parents who want to introduce their kids to coding. I don't know how to code, but when I played the Devlands beta, things clicked & I had a lot of fun doing it!

Hi, and welcome to Devlands! I'm Jacob Stopak, the creator and developer. But you can call me Jack. I've been using Git for 14 years and, like many, I found it challenging at first. Its abstract concepts make it tough to grasp, but once I understood how Git works under the hood, everything started to click - and I finally felt confident using it.

This low-level approach to Git inspired me to write the Decoding Git Guidebook for Devs in 2019. In 2022, I gave a talk on Git's code at Git Merge. In 2023, I launched Git-Sim: a tool to visualize Git commands before running them. It took off, with over 60,000 downloads to date.

Now knowing there was a demand for such visual tools, I asked myself: What if learning Git and coding could be even more intuitive? What if you could literally walk through your codebase - touch and feel the concepts in a tangible way? That idea became Devlands.

After two years of development, I'm thrilled to share this immersive, gamified experience with you. I hope it makes your Git and coding journey as fun and rewarding as I've always imagined it could be.

-Jack
