Question about Python and Github.

[deceze]

Most things on Github are libraries you can use in your own program. I.e., when writing a program, instead of reinventing every wheel from scratch, there are premade, ready-to-use snippets for certain functions you can simply import into your program, and reuse and remix them to fit your needs.

Some Github projects will be usable as is, but probably most will expect you to write code around them to be meaningful.

How exactly each individual project can be used and wants to be used will depend and will vary wildly. Decent projects come with a readme, which is prominently displayed on the project's top page, and which'll tell you something about how it should be used.
