Development
GitHub
Host repositories and collaborate through issues, branches, and code review.
THE SELECTION NOTE
Why it’s here
GitHub is here as the record around a software project. A small change with a readable explanation is a better first exercise than uploading everything at once. Evaluate whether collaborators can understand and review what changed.
Who it fits
Developers hosting repositories and collaborating on software.
A task to try: Review one change in a test repository
- Create or use a non-sensitive sample repository.
- Make a small change on a branch and explain its purpose.
- Inspect the diff and review conversation before retaining the change.
Where to be careful
Confirm repository visibility and access before uploading files. Check service allowances separately for builds, storage, and AI features.
