What is GitHub?

GitHub is a cloud-based platform for hosting and managing Git repositories.


It allows version control, collaboration, and code sharing.

Why Do We Need GitHub?

 Version Control: Tracks changes to code.

 Collaboration: Enables multiple developers to work on the same


project.

 Backup & Accessibility: Stores code in the cloud for easy access.

 Open Source Contribution: Facilitates sharing and contributing to


public projects.

what is git why we need it and if we have it then why GitHub?

What is Git?
Git is a distributed version control system (DVCS) that tracks changes in code,
allowing multiple developers to work on a project simultaneously without
overwriting each other's work.

If We Have Git, Why Do We Need GitHub?

Git works locally on your machine, while GitHub provides a remote platform
to:

 Share Code: Collaborate with others online.


 Backup Online: Store code securely in the cloud.
 Access Anywhere: Work from any device with internet access.
 Open-Source Contribution
