GitHub is one of the best platforms to share code with friends, co-workers, classmates, and complete strangers. Over 31 million people use GitHub to build amazing things together across 97+ million repositories. With all the collaborative features of GitHub, it has became easier for the individuals and teams to write faster and an efficient code.
GitHub has recently been acquired by Microsoft Corporation in 2018. The company, however, still operates as an independent community/platform led by Nat Friedman, under Microsoft.
With the collaborative features of GitHub, desktop and mobile apps, and GitHub Enterprise, the development platform helps individuals and teams to write better code, faster. From open source to business, users can host and review code, manage projects, and build software alongside millions of other developers. GitHub brings teams together to work through problems, move ideas forward, and learn from each other along the way. On GitHub, lightweight code review tools are built into every pull request. Teams can create review processes that improve the quality of code and fit neatly into the workflow. Project managers and developers can coordinate, track, and update their work in one place, so projects stay transparent and on schedule. Users can fine tune the process as the team changes, update tools as technologies shift, and find new ways to work better.
