100 million developers are using GitHub #Development #Programming @GitHub
In 2019, Microsoft and GitHub set a goal to have 100 million developers using GitHub by 2025. Today, there are now officially more than 100 million developers using GitHub to build, maintain, and contribute to software projects.
This not only puts them two years ahead of schedule, but represents a huge responsibility to continue putting developers first.
With all this growing responsibility, it can no longer be about just equipping developers with tools so they can do more. We need to give developers everything they need to focus on doing their best work.
GitHub is the home of all developers. This is our vision. From creating the pull request to empowering developers with AI through GitHub Copilot, everything we do has been to put the developer first. And it’s just the beginning. With GitHub Next, our research and development team is investigating the future of software development. From Code Brushes to Hey, GitHub!, GitHub Next has been pivotal in ensuring GitHub is the home for all developers.

Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
