GitHub

What is GitHub?

GitHub is a web-based hosting service that enables developers to collaborate on software projects using the Git revision control system. Established by Logical Awesome developers, GitHub offers both commercial plans and free accounts for open-source initiatives. The platform provides social networking features like feeds, followers, and network graphs to display how developers work on their versions of a repository. GitHub also operates a pastebin-style site, wikis for individual repositories, and web pages that can be edited through a Git repository. Additionally, the platform has a highly functional built-in Issue Tracker
