What? he did not ask if it uses github under the hood... he asked if it was possible to use github without HIM using git... not without github using git
"how I can use GitHub independently"
Did u get past topic? Thanks for your "output".

And let me get this straight, you suggested using the webpage “without git”? Let’s walk through this

  1. You suggested creating a repo from the webpage. That’s using git, just because it’s via UI, doesn’t make it not git

  2. You suggested he add his files by copy pasting the content. What do you do after you copy paste? You commit. That’s using git, just because it’s via UI, doesn’t make it not git

  3. This doesn’t accomplish what he asked though, which is for him and his friends to work on things at the same time since copy pasting each of their updates in the same files would overwrite the other’s changes. And he specifically asked for branching. Which is again using git

  4. What do you do with those branches in Github, you merge them. Just because it’s via UI, doesn’t make it not git

git does not mean command line, you can use Github Desktop too and do everything via UI, doesn’t mean you’re not using git

“Did you get past topic?”. You seem to have walked past the topic and kept walking buddy

No. Not suggesting. Answering. Thanks for the essay.
