This is my first project using the information learned in Chapter 1 of learncpp.com, I did end up doing some further research on how to use std::string to declare a string variable since I wanted to create a welcome project that can be customised to the person running it using their name.

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

int main() {
    // std::cout prints the text / data on the right of the '<<' to the console
    std::cout << "Welcome to my portfolio! What is your name?" << '\n';

    // 'std::' is required when declaring a string variable since it's not a
    // fundamental type, it's built in using the standard library
    std::string name {};
    std::cin >> name;

    // Using multiple '<<' operators concatenates data to be able to combine text and data
    std::cout << "Hello " << name << ", You'll find all of the projects I've created"
                                  " through my time learning C++ in this Github "
                                  "repository." << '\n';

    std::cout << "My main resources used for learning C++ have been learncpp.com"
                 " and 'The Cherno' on YouTube, as a passive learning experience"
                 " I can't forget to add 'tokyospliff' livestreams as well!" << '\n';

    return 0;
