GitHub Projects

GitHub Projects is a project management tool integrated within GitHub, designed for software development teams to plan, track, and manage their work. It allows users to create issues, break them into sub-issues, track progress, and visualize projects using tables, boards, or roadmaps. It also facilitates team collaboration through discussions, custom fields, and automated workflows.

GitHub Issues, as part of the broader GitHub platform, offers robust project management capabilities that align well with the concept of a low-code internal tools platform, particularly for developers. It provides features for planning, tracking, and discussing work, which can be seen as building internal applications. While not explicitly a 'low-code' platform in the same vein as Retool, it offers a structured environment for developers to build and manage software, including internal tools. The platform supports API integrations (through GitHub's broader ecosystem), code customization, access control, flexible deployments (via GitHub Actions and self-hosted runners), debugging tools, version control, audit logs, workflow automation, and mobile support. The AI-generated app assistant is covered by GitHub Copilot, which is integrated into the platform.
