GitLab Web Editor

In GitLab you can create new files and edit existing files using our web editor. This is especially useful if you don't have access to a command line or you just want to do a quick fix. You can easily access the web editor, depending on the context. Let's start from newly created project.

Click on Add a file to create the first file and open it in the web editor.
