Happy St. Patrick’s Day to all who celebrate! 🍀
May your tests be as green as your contributions. Sláinte! 🟩 💚 🍻
You know that thing you do every. single. time someone opens an issue? Or pushes to main? Or creates a PR?
Stop doing it manually.
Our next episode of GitHub for Beginners dives into automating your workflows with GitHub Actions.
Brazil, Indonesia, Japan, Germany, and India fueled a massive surge in 2025, adding nearly 36 million new developers to GitHub. 🌏
India alone added 5.2 million. 🇮🇳
But how do we turn this record growth into healthy communities?
Here is how open source scales in a global era. 📈
A computer screen displays code for a Monte Carlo simulation using pizza. The background features a grid with pizza splats. The code includes a Python function, `estimate_pi_from_pizza_splats`, with calculations to estimate Pi. On the screen, a message reads: "After 10,000 throws, Pi is served: #result" where #result represents a variable.
The standard libraries already include π. But where’s the fun in that?
Happy #PiDay! 🍕

Our tip for beginners: say goodbye to that extra meeting, and hello to Issues and Projects.
GitHub for Beginners season 3 is back and here to help you level up—or dust off—your GitHub skills.
We're back, and this time we're answering the questions you've been asking: From "How do I start with GitHub issues?" to "How do I build a portfolio?"
Learn GitHub from the people who built it. Coming soon!
0 results found? Not anymore. 🙅♀️
Semantic search for GitHub Issues is now in public preview. It understands your intent, not just exact terms—so you still find what you need, even with a slight mismatch.

New update for pull requests. 🚀
You can now follow the discussion directly in the "Files changed" tab. No more context switching.
Plus, we streamlined change requests: If you’ve already commented, skip the summary and just submit.
Get the details. ⬇️
It just got a lot easier to spin up new GitHub Projects!
You can now import things from a query (same queries as in Issues):

From securing the AI stack to strengthening the global supply chain, find out how these maintainers are making security improvements that benefit the entire ecosystem. 👇
In Session 3 of the GitHub Secure Open Source Fund, 67 more projects improved their defenses.
Who knows how to secure open source better than the maintainers themselves? 🛡️
A GitHub contributions graph is displayed, showing "0214 contributions in the last year." The graph's bars form four green heart shapes. Below, a list titled "Contribution activity - February 2026" shows Copilot's responses to the user's five love languages. Words of Affirmation "Your code is so beautiful, I almost didn't blame you for pushing straight to main... almost." Quality Time "I express my love by pairing with you so long, even your coffee needs a pull request to leave the room." Physical Touch "I care so much, I'll hover over your keyboard and physically guide your hand away from that merge button—true intimacy, developer style." Acts of Service "My way of showing I care? Quietly refactoring your code at 2am so you wake up to a surprise commit and a passive-aggressive TODO comment." Receiving Gifts "I love you so much, I'll gift you the rarest of treasures: a bug-free Friday deploy.. wrapped in a bow of unit tests and sarcastic commit messages."
We asked Copilot to interpret the five love languages for you this Valentine's Day. 💚
And we're particularly excited about using this to help open-source maintainers. When we showed this to @frenck.social, the maintainer of Home Assistant, he wrote a workflow that reads the traces for bugs and figures out if they originate in the HA codebase or not.
True noise elimination for OSS.
