### 🪐 Step-by-Step

#### Step 1: Install GitLab CLI

```bash
curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/profclems/glab/trunk/scripts/install.sh | sudo bash

Step 2: Authenticate GitLab CLI

Choose:

• GitLab.com or custom instance
• Paste your Personal Access Token when prompted

Step 3: Initialize your project

mkdir myproject
cd myproject
git init
echo "# My Project" > README.md
git add .
git commit -m "Initial commit"
