Let’s talk about where the github project code is

As an open source code hosting platform, project code on GitHub can be accessed and downloaded at any time. So where is the GitHub project code? This article will introduce it to you in detail.

1. Get the link to the GitHub project
To access the project code on GitHub, you first need to get the link to the project. On GitHub, each project has a unique link, which can be obtained in the following three ways:

1. Search through the GitHub homepage: Enter the project name in the search bar on the GitHub homepage and click the search button After that, all search results related to the project will be listed. Click on the project name to enter the project homepage and get the project link.
2. Through GitHub's project list: Select the "Explore" or "Trending" option in the menu bar above the GitHub homepage, and then select the project you are interested in on the page. Click to enter the project homepage to get the project link.
3. Directly access a known link: If you already know the link to a GitHub project, you can directly enter the link in the browser to access the project homepage.

2. How to obtain the GitHub project code
After obtaining the GitHub project link, the next step is to obtain the project code. Below we will introduce two ways to obtain GitHub project code.

1. Get through the Git clone command
   Use the Git clone command on the command line to get the code of the GitHub project. The specific steps are as follows:
   (1) Open the command line tool and enter the directory where you want to save the project code. For example, create a folder named "project" on the D drive.
   (2) Enter the following command on the command line, where username and reponame represent the GitHub user name and project name respectively.

   git clone https://github.com/username/reponame.git

   (3) After executing the command, Git will clone a complete code base from the remote GitHub repository to the local one. After the cloning is completed, the downloaded project code can be found in the "project" folder of the D drive.

2. Get it by directly downloading the compressed package
   If you just want to view the code of the GitHub project without modifying the code, you can directly download the compressed package of the project. The specific steps are as follows:
   (1) On the GitHub project homepage, click the "Code" button.
   (2) Click the "Download ZIP" button to download the compressed file packaged by the project.
   (3) After the download is completed, unzip the compressed file to obtain the complete project code.

3. Summary
The above are two ways to obtain the GitHub project code. The method of obtaining the Git clone command is suitable for situations where the project needs to be modified and managed, and the compressed package can be downloaded directly. The method is suitable for simply viewing and using projects. If you are a developer, you must learn to use Git clone, which will greatly facilitate your development management work.
