GitHub (for comparison)
GitHub is an online platform that allows people to store, manage, and collaborate on code for software development. Think of it as a version-controlled workspace where multiple users can work together on projects, track changes, and revert to previous versions if needed. It uses "repositories" to organize code and features tools for discussing changes and ideas. GitHub is widely used by individual developers and large organizations alike, making it easier to build and share software while maintaining a history of all modifications, much like a digital archive for collaborative projects.
