GitHub was founded to make a developer’s job easier with open and asynchronous communication, distributed version control, and source code management with Git. In the first year alone, 100,000 users were pushing code on the site.
GitHub has quickly become the world’s most popular platform for developers to collaborate on open-source projects from anywhere. Nearly every major company including Facebook, Google, and Apple hosts open-source projects on GitHub.
Github's approach to working mirrors its community, with employees collaborating remotely from all corners of the world. In 2018 Microsoft acquired the company as part of its larger strategy focusing on cloud computing services. GitHub is also continually evolving, with rolling investments placed into the continual development of its platform.
