All are preferred to install ubuntu but i wanted to work on the windows using Git-bash.

My laptop configurations are Windows 10(64-bit architecture) as Operating system, git-bash(command-line utility) and medium.com as my text editor. Now both these tools have extensive documentation and online resources as is the case for any other tool.

So what is git-bash?

Git-bash is a program which is used to run git and Linux commands on Windows. From the link above we can download the installer and install the program using it.

Using Linux commands development becomes much easier and also using git we can easily implement version control.

To know more about git-bash refer to this blog.

After installing git-bash, we need to configure it. The configurations that needed to be made are shown on this page.
