"I managed to streamline all our code and improved its quality"
What do you like best about GitHub?

All my work as a Developer has changed since GitHub came into my life. I never worry about accidentally deleting or deleting critical code. If something goes wrong, I just go back to an earlier version and that’s it. When I need to test something without changing the main code, the ability to deal with branches has saved me more than once. By using code reviews and pull requests, we can keep our workflow organized, make changes in real time, and comment on individual lines. Reviewing, commenting and suggesting changes to my coworkers' code directly on pull requests is a fantastic example of team collaboration. Thanks to GitHub, I no longer have coding errors and the quality of our code has increased. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GitHub?

For those who are not familiar with Git, at first, the learning curve can be a bit high. I still remember the first time I tried to set up a workflow using GitHub Actions, at that point programming was not my priority; I spent more time reading documentation.

"Great for Collaboration, But Notification Management Needs Improvement"

I like that GitHub is a partner portal for code and information Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GitHub?

Sometimes it’s hard to manage notifications Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best for collaborative work giving it 9 because it need some minor bug fixing."
What do you like best about GitHub?

I like how easy it is to use. Its integration with the cursor and VS Code is top-notch. I like everything about GitHub, especially how easily I can operate it with my Ubuntu terminal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GitHub?

It's merging needs some improvement. For example, there is a minor bug in which when you merge your branch through the GitHub dashboard, it shows a conflict, but when you merge it locally through VS Code, it will merge without any conflict. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
