web development. With its intuitive interface, GitHub empowers teams to seamlessly coordinate their efforts,
facilitating concurrent modifications to web pages. Its features, like as branching for parallel development, pull
requests for code review, and communication tools like issue tracking and project boards, promote efficient
teamwork. Furthermore, GitHub encourages a strong global developer community by encouraging open-source
