🚩 Create .gitignore, and remove node_modules folder

[ummahusla]

It's not really a good practice to keep no modules in the git repository.

• Create gitignore
• Remove node_modules

About how to create .gitignore

You can reference the .gitignore template: Node.gitignore
'node_modules/' is added in this '.gitignore'

About how to remove node_modules

git rm -r --cached node_modules
git commit -m 'Remove the now ignored directory node_modules'
git push origin master
Then check your repository.

@StephenGrider can you plz implement this issue as I just took your course and love to use this as a boilerplate for most of my students?

[ummahusla]

@aemal Stephen has great courses, but lack of response on his repositories is a bit frustrating.

• create a .gitignore file by using cmd git add .gitignore
• add the /node_modules inside the .gitignore file
• git push origin master

check the repository with each push.
