Have you ever coded a project and tried to get other people to collaborate on it?
The hardest part about collaboration on a project is sharing the project in a way that's simple and efficient. GitHub is where we can make that happen.
What is GitHub?
GitHub is a version control environment that makes collaboration simple and minimizes errors. It runs on the git language to add, change or remove files from the community repository.
Why use GitHub?
GitHub has been growing over the past several years and is now used by a good majority of large and small companies. Once we learn the git language, using GitHub is as simple as can be. Beyond the benefits of collaboration and added error protection, the service also provides analytics that range from contribution statistics, to the traffic of the repository. The repository can be made public for other users of GitHub to see and possibly help, or private if the repo should be kept within a circle of collaborators.
What can we do with GitHub?
