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 introduce you to various GitHub APIs and their endpoints. You’ll learn about authentication and integration with a GitHub developer account to leverage the APIs to manage the code. Next, you’ll learn to manage repositories, branches, commits, projects, collaborators, and deployment. By the end of this course, you’ll be able to build a demo application integrated with GitHub APIs using React framework. The course provides hands-on experience in integrating GitHub API into applications for version control of assets/ managing code repositories or projects if needed. You can integrate the API in any language framework of your choice.
