GitHub has essentially become the 'operating system' for my development workflow. What I appreciate most is the seamless integration of GitHub Actions directly within the repository; it makes setting up CI/CD pipelines for my Node.js applications incredibly straightforward without needing external tools like Jenkins. The Pull Request interface is also best-in-class for code reviews the ability to leave line-specific comments and suggest changes directly in the UI significantly speeds up our team's collaboration. Plus, the vast ecosystem of GitHub Marketplace actions saves me hours of manual scripting for deployments to AWS or automated testing Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While the feature set is massive, the UI is starting to feel quite bloated and cluttered, making it difficult for new team members to find specific repository settings. I also find the notification system frustratingly noisy; even with custom filters, important mentions often get buried under automated bot alerts. Additionally, debugging GitHub Actions can be a tedious 'commit-and-push' cycle because there’s no native, robust way to test complex workflows locally. Lastly, the pricing jump from the 'Team' to 'Enterprise' tier feels steep for mid-sized startups that need advanced security features like SAML SSO Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Out of the many things I like, the GitHub Issues connectivity with the Change Request stands out. I also appreciate how easy it is to implement GitHub Actions, along with the wide variety of deployments that can be performed through GitHub Actions.

Another great feature is GitHub Copilot. It helps me tackle many complex tasks, and I like that it can make modifications and raise a change request directly through Copilot itself, without needing as much manual intervention.

I use this very frequently with all of my projects and have a very smooth experience.

I initially used some other tool, but then migrated to Github and the integration and onboarding was very easy and smooth. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wouldn’t describe this as something I dislike, but it can be challenging to learn as a new beginner. For example, when a project has multiple microservices in a single Git repo, setting up GitHub worktrees can become tricky. This is especially true when there are microservice-level configuration files that may differ depending on the branch you’re working on. There may be a solution for this, but I’ve found it a bit difficult to work with so far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ease of code maintenance, standard procedures, everything at one place, enough options to do what I need.

What I like best about GitHub is how it combines version control, collaboration, and CI/CD into one seamless platform. The pull request workflow, issue tracking, and integrations make teamwork and code reviews efficient. It’s become the central hub for managing projects from idea to deployment.

Setup on.local, issues are not categorised in the best way, vauge filters are used, tough to find the issue I'm searching for, e.g..The UI can feel cluttered and some advanced features are hidden behind multiple menus, which slows down navigation. Pricing for private repos and advanced CI/CD minutes can also become expensive for teams. Occasionally, large repos or Actions pipelines feel slower than expected.

What I like most about GitHub is that it centralizes the entire development cycle in one place. It's not just a Git repository: it also functions as a collaboration and automation platform. Pull Requests, with a structured code review, elevate code quality and require you to justify technical decisions before integrating changes. GitHub Actions allows you to incorporate CI/CD directly into the repository, which simplifies automated testing, builds, and deployments without relying on external tools. I also value the clear management of branches, branch protection, and permission control, because they help maintain standards when working with large teams. In both personal and professional projects, GitHub reduces operational friction and improves code traceability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

GitHub can become complex when working with large teams if workflows are not clearly defined. Setting permissions, protected branches, and Actions is not always intuitive, and sometimes it's difficult to find the right way to get everything properly adjusted. Additionally, some more advanced features depend on paid plans, which can end up limiting small teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

GitHub's UI is genuinely clean — navigating across repos, PRs, Actions logs, and security alerts never feels cluttered even on large codebases. The onboarding for new contributors is handled well too; a good README + GitHub Pages setup and people can start contributing without any hand-holding. Integration with the entire toolchain (HuggingFace, PyPI, DockerHub, Slack) is seamless. For projects like PromptWall, I had CI running, a dataset linked, and a release pipeline live within a day of going public. Copilot suggestions inside PRs are actually useful for catching obvious issues during review. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Free tier Actions minutes cap is a real bottleneck once you have multiple active repos. Performance on the web editor lags noticeably on large diffs — anything over 1000 lines becomes painful to review in-browser. Secret scanning false-positives are annoying for security research repos (flags test credentials in CTF writeups). Support response time on billing/account issues is slow; the docs are thorough but finding answers to edge cases takes too long. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

GitHub is the home of open source. Almost anything you need to build a modern web application, store general knowledge notes, or support legacy systems can be found there. The UI is easy to navigate, with an unparalleled onboarding experience for new users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My biggest concerns about GitHub are areas that, thankfully, seem to be getting attention now. The Actions ecosystem is full of integrations and has transparent pricing, but it has felt like there hasn’t been enough investment in security or in performance improvements. The strong focus on AI, sometimes at the expense of other functionality, has also been somewhat concerning. That said, after recent security incidents, it does appear that GitHub is adding new guardrails that should help address these issues going forward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like everything: UI, it is quick, modern and easy to use, all settings are easy to find. The social component: how you can follow other users and see what their activity. The bots that auto check pull requests and commits are great help as well! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is hard to say, because I like almost everything. I think the only thing: sometimes I wish it would be faster to access the latest release of some application (if they provide compiled binaries) would be accessible on repos main page. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love using GitHub for open source projects and testing applications. It helps me store my code, collaborate with people across the globe, and deploy models and projects. I find it to be the best with the fastest, cleanest best UI that's easy to navigate. It's beginner-friendly and runs on scripts with simple prompts of our own language, making it superb. Also, the initial setup is completely easy for beginners. I'd definitely rate it 10 out of 10. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing to dislike, it is best version of itself! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like most about GitHub is how easy it makes collaboration on code. The pull request system is very straightforward and helps keep everything organized when multiple people are working on the same project. I also like the version control aspect, it’s easy to track changes, roll back if needed, and understand who did what. The integrations with other tools and CI/CD workflows are another big plus.

One downside is that it can feel a bit overwhelming at first, especially if you’re new to Git or version control in general. There are a lot of features, and not all of them are immediately intuitive. Also, managing permissions and repositories across larger teams can get a bit complicated if not structured properly.

GitHub makes collaboration seamless, version control clear, automation powerful, and community driven innovation accessible while solving problems of code sharing, workflow management, and project transparency, though its complexity can be daunting at first.

What frustrates me about GitHub is how its simplicity hides steep learning curves. Git concepts like rebasing, resolving merge conflicts, and managing forks can overwhelm newcomers, private repos and advanced features are locked behind paid tiers, the interface sometimes feels cluttered with notifications and endless pull requests, and large projects can suffer from slow performance or confusing issue tracking.
