GitHub is a web-based platform for version control and collaboration, primarily used by software developers and teams. It provides the tools to host, review, and manage code, facilitating project tracking and team coordination for projects of any size.

Version Control with Git: The platform is built around Git, providing distributed version control to track changes, maintain history, and manage branches for codebases. Collaborative Code Review: Features like pull requests and inline comments allow teams to discuss, review, and improve code before it is merged into a project. Project Management Tools: Integrated issue tracking, project boards, and wikis help teams organize tasks, track bugs, and document their work alongside the code. Automated Workflows: Actions can be configured to automate software development workflows, such as testing, building, and deploying code directly from the repository. Extensive Ecosystem: It hosts a vast network of public and private repositories, enabling developers to discover, contribute to, and fork millions of open-source projects.
