GitHub

GitHub is a hosting solution for open source and private Git repositories.

About GitHub

GitHub Marketplace lists tools and services that integrate with the code hosting platform, which is owned by Microsoft. Developers publish GitHub Apps and Actions that automate testing, code review, security scanning, project management, and deployment directly within repositories. Paid listings are billed through GitHub itself using marketplace pricing plans, so customers subscribe with their existing account and the platform manages the transaction; free apps are also common.

Getting started involves registering an app in the developer settings and following the getting-started guide in the REST API documentation. Octokit client libraries are maintained for Ruby, .NET, and Node.js, giving publishers a consistent way to call the API. Apps request scoped permissions that repository owners review before installing, and listings can offer flat-rate or per-unit pricing.
