Git vs GitHub: what's the difference?
??Before going forward, Let me clear some myths:-
? GitHub and Git are like?door?and?door-mat.??They are entirely different.
?Git is not a programming language.?Git is built in C. Git is the de facto standard for what's known as version control software.
? Ok! Lets Start??????
Git is like a save button for your code. It lets you take "snapshots" of your code so you can go back to earlier versions later.
??Git's?technical definition?is that it is a version control system that facilitates team collaboration and codebase management. Developers can trace changes, go back to earlier versions, and combine code from various sources thanks to this.
??Now, what is GitHub??GitHub is a website where you can share your code with others, and work on code together. It uses Git to save and manage your code but adds extra features to make collaboration easier.

??In short, Git is a tool and GitHub is a platform that uses that tool. You can use Git without using GitHub, but you can't use GitHub without using Git.
After all, naming conventions aren't always obvious in the realm of programming. Because of this, it's important to understand the relationships and distinctions between Git and GitHub, which have similar names. Git and GitHub both provide programmers with useful version-control features so they may work on ongoing coding projects without worrying about breaking anything. Simply put, GitHub goes a little bit farther than Git in that it provides more tools and capabilities in addition to an online repository for storing and working on projects.
That's essentially it.

It's a great way to get started with these powerful tools for managing and collaborating on code. Give it a try!
??Using Git and GitHub may feel a little strange at first, but once you have some practice and if you keep your workflow simple then using Git will become very natural and fast.
