Signature illustrations

The pictures a learner should still see in their head a year later:

Git commit graphs, branch, merge and rebase animations, container layer stacks, pipeline flow for continuous integration.

Status

This course is planned, not written yet. It ships with Ring 3 (Breadth).

Every lesson will follow the same twelve-part blueprint with at least three purpose-made figures. Watch the repository to hear when modules ship, or help write and review it.
