How developers work
Find tools that support every part of your workflow. Then work how you work best—we'll follow your lead.
CI/CD
Automate from code to cloud
Cycle your production code faster and simplify your workflow with GitHub Packages and built-in CI/CD using GitHub Actions.
Automate your workflows
Build, test, deploy, and run CI/CD the way you want in the same place you manage code. Trigger Actions from any GitHub event to any available API. Build your own Actions in the language of your choice, or choose from thousands of workflows and Actions created by the community.
Packages at home with their code
Use Actions to automatically publish new package versions to GitHub Packages. Install packages and images hosted on GitHub Packages or your preferred registry of record in your CI/CD workflows. It’s always free for open source—and data transfer within Actions is unlimited for everyone.
Secure development
Securing software, together
We all play a role in securing the world’s code—developers, maintainers, researchers, and security teams. On GitHub, development teams everywhere can work together to secure the world’s software supply chain, from fork to finish.

Get alerts about vulnerabilities in your code
We continuously scan security advisories for popular languages, and send Dependabot alerts to maintainers of affected repositories with details so they can remediate risks.
Automatically update vulnerabilities
We monitor your project dependencies and automatically open pull requests to update dependencies to the minimum version that resolves known vulnerabilities.
Stay on top of CVEs
Stay up to date with the latest Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs), and learn how they affect you with the GitHub Advisory Database.
Find vulnerabilities that other tools miss
CodeQL is the industry’s leading semantic code analysis engine. Our revolutionary approach treats code as data to identify security vulnerabilities faster.
Eliminate variants
Never make the same mistake twice. Proactive vulnerability scanning prevents vulnerabilities from ever reaching production.
Keep your tokens safe
Accidentally committed a token to a public repository? We’ve got you. With support for 20 service providers we’ll take steps to keep you safe.
Protect your users
We provide the infrastructure security researchers and open source maintainers need to responsibly disclose security vulnerabilities.
Code review
Seamless code review
Code review is the surest path to better code, and it’s fundamental to how GitHub works. Built-in review tools make code review an essential part of your team’s process.
Propose changes
Better code starts with a Pull Request, a living conversation about changes where you can talk through ideas, assign tasks, discuss details, and conduct reviews.
See the difference
Reviews happen faster when you know exactly what’s changed. Diffs compare versions of your source code side by side, highlighting the parts that are new, edited, or deleted.
Give clear feedback
Your teammates shouldn’t have to think too hard about what a thumbs up emoji means. Specify whether your comments are required changes or just a few suggestions.
Request reviews
If you’re on the other side of a review, you can request reviews from your peers to get the exact feedback you need.
Comment in context
Discussions happen in comment threads, right within your code. Bundle comments into one review, or reply to someone else’s inline to start a conversation.
Protect branches
Only merge the highest quality code. You can configure repositories to require status checks, reducing both human error and administrative overhead.
