GitHub is one of the most popular code management platforms for software engineers. Developers can use Git to create and edit both personal and shared repositories, control access, and fork projects into various branches. These changes are approved by collaborators and merged back into the main branch before a final release. This course will walk you through various GitHub APIs and their endpoints. You’ll be introduced to authentication and integration with a GitHub developer account to leverage the APIs to manage your code. Next, you’ll learn to manage repositories, branches, commits, projects, collaborators, and more. By the end of this course, you’ll be able to build a demo application integrated with GitHub APIs.
