Overview
As the global home for all developers, GitHub is the complete AI-powered developer platform to build, scale, and deliver secure software. With Codespaces, we’re building and operating instant-on, remote cloud development environments. In this model, engineers work in cloud development environments — tailored for a specific project — where the overhead of launching a task-specific workbench is effectively zero. Work on a bug, review a change, or just try something out, all booted from a clean baseline ready for your commits. Not only does this accelerate engineers day to day coding, but it is also used across GitHub.com to iterate on and validate Copilot-generated code.
