So, China has its own github, probably due to the GFW and due to better l10n. How popular is coding.net compared to github?

- jamesnaismith 10y agoAlexa.com is great for these kind of questions. coding.net has a global rank of 15,497 (and falling somewhat fast), github.com has a global rank of 61 and has been stable if somewhat declining.
- sdm 10y agoGithub is not blocked by the GFW. I've never heard of coding.net before, most people here use github in my experience.
- jordigh 10y agoIt has been blocked by the GFW a few times. I guess having it go down like that unpredictably would push people towards coding.net? But the l10n is probably a much bigger factor for why anyone would use coding.net?
- tvvocold 10y agoIt's more than that. https://Coding.net https://Coding.net is a cloud development platform that enables developers do all the work in a browser (include free private repositories, WebIDE, powerful GTD tools, programmer community...). Also, CODING runs a marketplace (https://mart.coding.net https://mart.coding.net) to help developers find matching software requirements and make the deal. We will be rolling out the English version of our site in this year, so stay tuned:)
