“GitHub’s reputation of being a stable source helps us make sure we can maintain access to our code in ways we couldn’t if we were hosting it ourselves,” he said. “And GitHub seems to be growing and improving at such an accelerated rate that, in my mind, anything we can …

“GitHub gives us the controls and oversight we need without placing a burden on our developers or hampering their ability to innovate."

“If something as essential as the code repository is down, developers can’t do their work."

“We clearly needed to find a solution."

“Now we’re doing architectural reviews in GitHub as Markdown documents. So if someone has an architectural decision to make, they’ll submit a proposal as a pull request. And that’s the start of that documentation process.”

“In the past, the feedback loop was longer. Eventually, it might trickle down from Jira and someone might pick it up.”

"GitHub allows us to meet our developers where they are. We can’t imagine having to train new developers on any other platform."

“We wanted to set up a new baseline and needed a modern system that we could utilize across business units to solve our problems with fragmentation.”

“With GitHub, we have created a system that is so attractive that developers don't want to use anything else.”

“GitHub helped us to accelerate collaboration at Philips by connecting our global software community with each other. Our innersource approach now allows us to respond faster to customer needs and contributes to our vision to improve 2.5 billion lives annually by 2030, including 400 million in underserved communities.”

“We have unit tests, we have integration tests, we have browser tests, and tests to see whether the pixels are matching perfectly."

“For example, when using VS Code and GitLens we can see who wrote what lines of code. We can also jump straight to the pull requests in GitHub for further context, which is super powerful.”

“Any engineer within the company can commit code into our repositories, however, all code goes through a mandatory review process before it’s put into production."

“GitHub just works. when source control is snappy and fast, it helps our developers focus longer and not have to be reacting to outages or waiting for things to happen.”

“Our engineers aren’t just building products, they’re building our customers’ futures."
