Why GitHub?

GitHub is a useful programming resource used for code sharing, project management, and collaboration. It also acts as a social networking site for programmers at various companies and organizations. Github uses Git, a version control system that is used for tracking modifications in computer files and used to coordinate the workflow among project team members. Git also ensures that everyone is working on the file’s latest version and everyone can work simultaneously on the same project. For those who are incoming first-years, learning GitHub, Git, and Markdown early will help you in varying projects and assignments for future CS classes.
