Lately i have been using Notepad ++ and i was wondering if any of y'all would recommend a different platform that would allow me and another person to code on the same project at the same time?
I like using Sublime text.
It's very lightweight and extemely versatile :).
You can install alot of free very creative plugins to help you coding too including some SVN plugins.
To share your code another way i guess you could use something like github or tortoise SVN too.
To work on thesame file online i recommend collabedit.com (Online editor for multiple users)
Good luck
Er, well, you could try Vim or Aptana Studio or Net Beans?

I am learning Html now and I want to become a front-end web developer should I learn Git and Github at the same time?
Welcome to the coding world!
First, take a look at this guide on how to ask good questions on stack overflow.
Second, learning how to use GitHub is very good as you will have to use some kind of version control in your professional career. Learning how to use Git is even better, because it makes you unterstand GitHub in depth but since you're just starting, stick to getting a hang of GitHub first.
Third, learning HTML is a good start. If you're happy with how it feels, you want to look into CSS next. If you are feeling adventurous you can try to play around with advanced frameworks like reactJS. Most professionals are required to be able to work with those.
In general it's a good idea to consume a lot of tutorials, try them yourself and please: It's priceless to be able to work with the documentation provided for most software, programming languages and their packages. Just punch "HTML Documentation" or "reactJS Documentation" in your favourite search engine and it will take you to everything you need later on once you learned the basics.

I would like to display a code snippet from my own public GitHub source repo in my own web site, without having to make a copy. This is for a tutorial to illustrate some programming concepts. So not to run it but to pretty print it, as it were.
I bet this is something that many people need. I am looking for a lead on how to do this.
You could use the GitHub API to accomplish this.
See the Get Contents endpoint.
Yes, you can do that either by publishing your repo on npm and then referring it as npm dependency in projects package.json.
or 2nd , you can directly refer GitHub repo as dependency in package.json.
Hope this gets you in right direction.
thanks

I am really thinking of how I can build a very minimal Git-like software only for my self for now!
I have gone through Git documentations and even the way git works and I have quite an understanding on it.
Is there any example for me to study as a bonus before I dive into this project?.
In addition to the Documentation/technical folder which explains the internals of Git, you can study how Git was re-implemented, as an exercice, in other languages.
See for instance:
in Go the project src-d/go-git (recent 2018),
in Javascript: danlucraft/git.js (much older),
In Javascript (more recent 2015): Gitlet.
In Java, the project eclipse/jgit (used by EGit)
In C (with a lot of bindings for other languages), LibGit2 (and its GitHub repository, apologies to Edward Thomson for not mentioning it first.)

I browsed some of their sites. They always point to bug list as start of participating project.But, as a newbie in that project? How can I fix bug at the beginning?
Can anybody give me some suggestions about this?
Issac Truett's answer is good.
My only suggestion would be to pick a project and download their source code. Most open source projects use CVS, Subversion, or Git to manage the source code.
Pick an integrated development environment (IDE) that supports the language of the project and attach the IDE to their source code manager.
Spend some time getting familiar with the source code, and the bug list will make more sense.
Almost every Open Source project I've ever seen has a stack of minor issues in the corner - cosmetic or otherwise largely inconsequential things that nobody has considered worth their time. If you just want to get your foot in the door, that's probably a good way to introduce yourself. Just find something easy, make sure you implement it well, and follow the project's rules on coding style, submission for review, etc.
Or, ask the project. "I'm new, I want to help, this is my skill set. Would someone be willing to mentor me?"

You can see lots of briliant ideas in Open source projects. How authors found these ideas whey they don't exist yet?
Should I learn software dynamics, history and trends(Nothing new under the sun?) for that?
I don't want to start another github project called "API to xyz". What should I do??
Scratch an itch. Find something that you feel is a problem or annoying and write some code to solve that problem. Chances are you aren't the only person who is affected by that particular problem.
I believe a lot of software projects, open source or not, start as someone identifying a demand and working to supply it.
Think you're not satisfied with wherever photo management apps you found. Starting (or forking an existing one) with your needs in mind is an option.
What kind of software you would like to use but can find one that suits you? If yours needs are more or less supplied by already existing applications, why not working on improving one you like most?
