emphasizes standard workflows and easy integrations. Users love Actions, Copilot boosts, and generous free tier. Common knocks: beginner learning curve, occasional Actions cost/latency, complex org permissions, and paid-tier pricing. Overall, the safest default for teams of any size.

GitHub is the foundation of modern software collaboration. We built on top of it by restructuring worktrees specifically for AI-agent-driven development, enabling multiple agents to work in parallel while staying aligned with the repository’s structure and intent.

I chose GitHub because it keeps everything organized and safe. All the code, version history, and project files live in one place. I can track every change I make, roll back if something breaks, and keep a clean record of how the app evolved over time. For a solo developer, having that safety net is essential. It just works and I never have to worry about losing progress.
