Is it possible to raise desktop projects on GitHub?

2

Can I develop my desktop programs and get up to GitHub, and work this way with versioning of my program with Git?

Or can I just raise web projects for GitHub?

GitHub is just a project repository. He does not know in what language he was written, what technology he used, in what form or other features his design has. So of course you can for a "desktop" project. It does not even need to be a software, even if it is more suitable for it.

You communicate with it basically through Git. Everyone can grab his files, create a fork and ask to merge some changes they made. Some can merge directly, you have control over this. Github is just a centralizer that serves as a copy of your project and allows others to access it conveniently. Of course, it has some extra tools to communicate with the users / developers of your project, but they are secondary features.

Free use requires that the project be open. If you want to keep it closed, you should use a paid account.
