GitHub is a code-hosting platform and software development platform that allows developers to collaborate on open-source and private projects. Founded by Chris Wanstrath, PJ Hyett, Scott Chacon, and Tom Preston-Werner, GitHub serves over 150 million developers and is used by 90% of Fortune 100 companies. The platform provides version control using Git, code review, issue tracking, project management, and CI/CD capabilities. GitHub was acquired by Microsoft in 2018 for $7.5 billion and operates as a subsidiary, with GitHub Copilot (an AI-powered developer tool) being a key growth driver. The platform hosts millions of repositories and enables developers worldwide to build, ship, and maintain software.
