Whenever you create something exciting or something new on your own, you always want to show it to others. As programmers, we also want to show our projects and codes to others, but how? So GitHub is the solution, it let's people to collaborate and scale the projects all on cloud. Some other example of simillar platform are , Bitbucket, GitLab, Beanstalk, etc. Many of them give you the facility to work on your code together as a team. Currently, Github is more popular than other above-listed platforms for hosting your code.

So each indivituals works on different feature from the copy of the central repository, once the development is done they push changes to the **remote repository** (central repo as per picture). Once **code review** happens and good to go, the senior developer will merge the code to the central repository so all the feature will be live on production.

So, each individual works on a different feature from a copy of the central repository, once the development is done they push changes to the *remote repository* (central repo as per picture). Once a code review happens and it is good to go, the senior developer will merge the code into the central repository so all the features will be live in production.

So in the above example all the developer where able to work on different feautre simulatneaulsy because of the git. For uploading your project to your Github account, you need to install Git first. In other words, Git helps to do this version management of the files and coordinating work among the diverse team in the software development phase. Git is an open-source project and developed in 2005 by Linus Torvalds and Junior.

1. **What is Version control System?**: To understand the version control system, let me give you one example; sometimes, you wish you have a record that contains all the changes you made in your code or your project. The version control systems are software tools that record all of your changes in the files. It is like a database of changes. Git is a version control system that most developers prefer to use. We will see how you can upload your code on Github using Git. With VCS you can track the branch, who made changes at what time, line of code added, retrive the previous version of changes.

The fork is a personal copy of the repo which is already present or uploaded in GitHub by a different user. Once you fork and make changes to the repository the changes will happen to your forked repo, not the real one.
