GitHub turns 10 (opens in new tab)

Thank you GitHub for your contributions which are hated and loved by many (though loved by most I think is the general consensus). You've not only changed what we've all come to expect from version control tooling but also you've given us tooling that gave us things like Discord, Slack, VS Code, Atom and who knows what else! So thank you, say what you will about Electron but I find it self evident there is a gaping whole in existing GUI frameworks that was fulfilled so readily by Electron its growing adoption rate is self evident of this.

People can nitpick and complain about Github but the platform works and Github is now the de-facto standard for both open and closed source projects.

Hats off to Github...but let’s also not forget the AMAZING tool underneath the covers that is simply called git!

Github is arguably one of the most important and core companies in Silicon Valley. Kudos on 10 years of being the backbone of most tech companies and open source projects, and for being a valuable repository of knowledge and collaboration.

congratulations, have been a big fan of the service (free and paid). looking forward to the next few years of innovation.
