Repositories

In the context of software development, a repository (or "repo") is a centralized location where source code, files, and project history are stored and maintained. It enables developers to collaborate, track changes, and manage different versions of their work efficiently. Think of it as a digital filing cabinet specifically designed for software projects, where all the components and history are organized and accessible. Repositories facilitate teamwork, streamline updates, and ensure that everyone is working with the most current version, making project development more structured and manageable.
