DevOps Concept

Basic notions

Git

Imagine you have a company with several developers, all of whom are working on their own environments but on the same codebase. To avoid problems like when two people are working on the same file, we can use Git.

Git helps all developers to work on the same application simultaneously and collaborate efficiently. You can configure project organizations and define different access levels for each group and user.

There are other similar platforms like GitLab or Bitbucket that serve the same function.

To summarise, Git is the command-line tool used to facilitate collaboration among multiple developers, and GitHub is the Git-based publicly accessible repository where you push and find your code. With GitHub, you can share your project with others along with documentation, and people can contribute to your project as well.
