GitHub

GitHub is the most popular code-hosting service among open source developers and programmers. It was started by Linux creator Linus Torvalds.

GitHub is a Git repository hosting service, but it adds many of its own features. There are 3 main features fork, pull request and merge – that make GitHub so powerful and popular.

GitHub works as a repository as well. One can store code files, text files, image files, inside a repository. This is the place where latest releases and updates for different frameworks, for example CherryFramework and cherry plugins can be found and downloaded.

This resource is also useful for beginners, not only for programmers. People can share their projects through GitHub.

GitHub is essentially where you store your projects and collaborate with other programmers.

GitHub allows to work on one project for several people and do not overwrite changes. Later these changes in the projects can be merged to create one common project. It also takes care of keeping changelogs that have been pushed to the repository

Social networking aspect is another feature of GitHub. Each user has its own profile that describes your work and contributions to projects.
