GitHub
Repository hosting, PRs, Actions and Copilot.
Code hosting platform with pull requests, issues, CI/CD (Actions) and the Copilot assistant. The largest open source community in the world.
When to use
When the project is open source or you want the most widespread ecosystem of PRs, Actions and Copilot.
When to avoid
If you need to host everything on your own infrastructure (prefer GitLab or Gitea) or depend on Jira (Bitbucket integrates better).
