Ever wondered what 10 million users and most silicon valley companies like Facebook and Google use for creating and managing open source API's and to help the open source community. It is GitHub, a Git repository hosting service founded just a few years ago to build software better, together.

Most of the high paying companies are using Git and GitHub for their new, innovative and upcoming Software Languages. Open source software's can now be made using GitHub and you will be able to share your repositories with other developers so that they can also contribute. GitHub concepts can be implemented in Big Data and Hadoop technology, Java Projects and other frameworks as well. Some of the trending repositories in GitHub are Scala and AngularJS.

The following professionals can go for this course:

1. Software Professionals

2. Testing Professionals

3. Software Architects and Designers

4. Open source contributors and enthusiasts

5. Developers who want to gain acceleration in their careers as professionals using Git and GitHub

6. Managers who are technical subject matter experts, leading software development projects

The pre-requisite for this course include knowledge of Microsoft Windows GUI and Windows Command line.
