GitHub

GitHub is a platform for software development and collaboration.

It offers version control with Git, hosting for repositories, collaboration tools like pull requests and issues, code review features, branching and merging capabilities, integration with CI/CD tools, discovery of open-source projects, and social features for connecting with other developers.
