GitHub allows unpaid developer accounts to join its Developer Program
GitHub wants to make its Developer Program more accessible. The company announced new offerings that will enable unpaid account holders to join the program.
The GitHub Developer Program is a community of developers who are building apps on top of the GitHub platform. The program enables developers to stay up to date with API changes, try out new features before they launch, build their own tools, and build and test apps against GitHub Enterprise.
“We understand that developers have different needs, and enabling people to build on our platform serves our larger goal of making software developers’ lives easier. The program initially launched three years ago, and has been a resource to those starting out, currently at 17,000 members,” said Joe Wadcan, head of business development for GitHub.
A free account on GitHub gives developers access to unlimited public repositories.
