+# My Python programs
+
+## In class
+
+```bash
+git clone https://git.classproject.dev/__STUDENT__/python.git
+cd python
+python3 hello.py
+```
+
+Saving your work:
+
+```bash
+git add .
+git commit -m "say what you changed"
+git push
+```
+
+## At home
+
+You don't need your class laptop. Go to
+**https://git.classproject.dev/__STUDENT__/python**, sign in, and edit files
+right in the browser.
+
+To actually *run* Python at home you need Python installed — but you can read
+and edit your programs from anywhere.
+
+## Reading an error
+
+When something goes wrong, Python tells you two useful things: the **line
+number** and the **kind** of error. Read those two before you change anything.
+
+Running the same broken program again does not fix it.
