How to level up your Git game with GitHub CLI

GitHub, the web-based hosting service for developers, offers various tools such as Codespaces, GitHub Desktop, integrations with various editors like VS Code or JetBrains, and a GitHub Mobile app. Developers can use these tools or the lightweight web editor GitHub.dev, to access full editing environments online, create and manage repositories, issues, pull requests, labels, and even use Git directly from the terminal. GitHub CLI makes working on GitHub in the terminal faster and more powerful by keeping developers in their workflow while they perform tasks like opening issues, reviewing pull requests, or editing repositories. This article describes a variety of GitHub CLI commands that developers can use to improve their workflow. The GitHub CLI and its extensions, developed by GitHub and community developers, are open-source and thus give developers the power to customize their command line experience.
