GitHub Gist is a web-based service provided by GitHub that allows users to share and collaborate on code snippets, text, and other small files. Gists are similar to repositories in that they are hosted on GitHub and have version control features, but they are typically used for sharing and collaborating on small pieces of code or text.
Gists can be created either anonymously or with a GitHub account, and can be either public or private. Gists can also be embedded in web pages and shared via social media, email, or other means.
One of the most useful features of Gist is the ability to fork and clone Gists, just like repositories, making it easy to collaborate on code snippets with other developers. Gists also support syntax highlighting for many programming languages, making it easy to share code that is easy to read and understand.

Overall, GitHub Gist is a useful tool for developers who need to quickly share code snippets or collaborate on small pieces of code or text with others.
