1. We can track progress of our projects using git.
2. We can create different git repositories of different versions of our project.
3. We can host it on cloud using git-hosting-service named GitHub.
4. GitHub provides accessibility and features for enhancing developer experience.
5. Congratulations !!! Git and GitHub are not same anymore.

Thanks for sticking by. There's a lot more to come. Thank you !!😀
