There's no substitute for hands-on experience. But for most students, real world tools can be cost-prohibitive. That's why we created the GitHub Student Developer Pack with some of our partners and friends: to give students free access to the best developer tools in one place so they can learn by doing.

In December 2020, we launched the public beta of GitHub Discussions, a collaborative communication forum that allows community members to ask and answer questions, share updates, and have open-ended conversations. Since then, Discussions has been rapidly growing with tens of thousands of open source communities and discussions created. Maintainers are now interacting more closely than ever with community members to build great software.

Collaborative forum spaces within GitHub can benefit everyone, and that’s why today, we’re announcing that Discussions is now available for private repositories as a public beta. We’d love to share how some of our early adopters have explored Discussions for private repositories.

A safe space for educators and students

Educational bootcamps and classrooms use private Discussions as a platform to discuss additional topics and questions between classes. Students have a safe space to ask their questions and receive answers from classmates and educators who have shared context. When seeking support, students can reference errors and technical questions to surface to their classmates or instructors within the same space as their code.

Building a developer network at Stripe

Stripe is utilizing Discussions to connect with developers while working together in private spaces. From upcoming workshops to beta feedback, Discussions provides a direct line of access to the Stripe developer advocacy team. This dedicated private network enables their engineers to collaborate, test, and gain support as they create and develop new payment features.

How do I get started?

If you are an admin or a maintainer of a private repository, you can now enable Discussions under “Features” in the repository settings.

GitHub and Major League Hacking (MLH) came together to organize Local Hack Day: Share (LHD: Share). This hackathon is a 12-hour global finish-up-athon where students from all over the world finish the projects they’ve built through the year, curate their portfolios, and prepare their resumes for the future. The event takes place in multiple locations starting on April 3, 2020.

In every iteration of the event, students from all over the world get together to build a variety of projects. From music recommendations to Self-Healing Micro-services, and even a mailbox notification system, LHD: Share offers a safe space to learn and get hands-on experience with the newest technologies.

All workshops are delivered with the purpose to further develop student’s communication skills. During the event, attendees have the opportunity to share accomplishments and demo the projects they’ve built.
