About GitHub and Git
About GitHub
GitHub is a cloud-based platform where you can store, share, and work together with others to write code.
Storing your code in a "repository" on GitHub allows you to:
Showcase or share your work.
Track and manage changes to your code over time.
Let others review your code, and make suggestions to improve it.
Collaborate on a shared project, without worrying that your changes will impact the work of your collaborators before you're ready to integrate them.
Collaborative working, one of GitHub's fundamental features, is made possible by the open- source software, Git, upon which GitHub is built.
About Git
Git is a version control system that intelligently tracks changes in files. Git is particularly useful when you and a group of people are all making changes to the same files at the same time.
