Explanation
GitHub is a cloud-based hosting service that provides Git-based version control along with collaboration features such as pull requests, issues, code review, and project management tools. It is built on top of Git (the open-source VCS) and is owned by Microsoft. It is not a centralized VCS (Git is distributed), and while it fosters community, its primary identity is as a cloud-hosted, collaborative version control platform.
