Overview

GitHub is a development platform whose Issues and Projects features support project planning beside the code. Projects combine issues, pull requests and draft work in filtered table, Kanban and roadmap views. Custom fields, iteration fields, charts and automation let teams shape their own process rather than adopt a fixed methodology. Free includes unlimited public and private repositories, Issues and Projects with community support. Team adds private-repository collaboration controls and web support; Enterprise adds identity and deployment options. Actions, Codespaces, security products and Copilot have separate allowances or charges. Displayed paid rates carry first-12-month wording, so confirm renewal and billing terms before treating them as ongoing prices. Project planning alone does not require buying the entire set of add-ons.
