OpenHarmony project enters GitHub

OpenHarmony – the open-source project of the HarmonyOS operating system, is now available on the top software and version control platform, GitHub. According to the information, the OpenHarmony project on GitHub is a read-only mirror for OpenHarmony and won’t be used for accepting issues or pull requests.

GitHub is a Git repository hosting service, but it adds many of its own features. While Git is a command-line tool, GitHub provides a Web-based graphical interface. It also provides access control and several collaboration features, such as wikis and basic task management tools for every project.

OpenHarmony is the next-gen open-source operating system, which is supported on several platforms and works on the Internet of everything. Following its development, Huawei has officially donated the source code to the open-source foundation – OpenAtom.
