Explanation

Custom applications in ServiceNow are built primarily to fulfill specific internal business use cases not covered by out-of-the-box features (e.g., a custom workflow for an internal HR process), and to create tailored integrations with third-party systems (e.g., a custom connector to an ERP or CRM). Avoiding a code repository like GitHub is not a valid reason - ServiceNow actually encourages using Git-based source control. Replacing ServiceNow base tables is also incorrect; custom apps extend the platform, they do not replace core infrastructure.
