What is Git?
Git is an open-source software used for tracking changes in a
distributed version control system (DVCS). It is used/designed to track
changes in your project. Git works hand in hand with GitHub and it
was developed in 2005 by Linus Torvalds.
What is GitHub?
GitHub is a hosting provider and version control platform used to
collaborate on open-source projects and share files. In GitHub, you
can make your own changes to a project at the same time as other
developers are making theirs.
Difference between Git and GitHub
Git is a version control system that manages and keeps track of your code while
GitHub, on the other hand, is a service that lets you host, share, and manage
your code files on the internet. Git is a Distributed Version Control System
(DVCS) and GitHub is the platform where we host our code.
