Yes, GitHub is owned by Microsoft. In 2018, Microsoft acquired GitHub for $7.5 billion. Despite the acquisition, GitHub continues to operate as an independent community, platform, and business.
GitHub is a web-based platform that allows teams to collaborate on code, content, and research in real time. It is popular for its ease of use, robust documentation and support, and encouragement of collaborations.

- Some useful features of GitHub are paid and that’s the reason most people stopped using it.
- GitHub doesn’t offer a good API development.
- There are not many features in GitHub like other repository platforms in the market.

Both GitHub and GitLab are platforms where you can submit your repositories, make collaborations with other developers worldwide, track your development works, access your repositories remotely, showcase your projects and much more. These platforms make our lives easier where we don’t need to keep changing our files on our system whenever a new version of the application is introduced as it also provides version control for your applications.
