vs Comparison

Open Source vs GitHub

Who’s behind each, what their homepages track, what they cost and how often their policies changed, measured the same way for both. By what they offer, they’re close.

Open Source

googlesource.com hosts Google's Git repositories for open source projects such as Android, Chromium and Go, and its homepage redirects to Google's Open Source portal covering released projects, programs like Google Summer of Code, and the open source blog.

GitHub

microG is a free, open-source reimplementation of Google Play Services for Android. It lets apps that depend on Google APIs run on AOSP-based custom ROMs such as LineageOS without the proprietary Google apps.
