Hey. Just as a tip, you can keep this repo slim by keeping /bin and /obj and /.vs folders out of it :)

Simply use a .gitignore file made for VS C# projects.

Otherwise, appreciate how well you've documented this project!

Thank you!! How do I use .gitignore? Is it a folder or file that is created? I usually create my repositories through the GitHub website. Thank you so much for your feedback!!

Yeah its just a file that goes at the root of your project. Usually with no filename, just a .gitignore extension. Anything (file or folder names) you put in there gets ignored by the source control.

You can write the file yourself, or just use a template other people have written. Here's one for visual studio projects : https://github.com/github/gitignore/blob/main/VisualStudio.gitignore

But since those folders have already been committed, you need to look into removing them first.
