Dear Jim, I think the most prominent "non software" usage of github in the meta-category are: 1. github pages https://pages.github.com/ together with static site generators (such as Jekyll), one generates website, blog and etc... 2. gitbook https://www.gitbook.com/blog/features/github-gitignore 3. Project management https://huboard.com/ 4. Chatting such as gitter Regards, CH On Wed, Nov 22, 2017 at 8:23 PM, Jim Herbsleb <jim.herbsleb@gmail.com> wrote:
I’m looking for GitHub repositories that are used for things other than software, especially where users are actively collaborating rather than just putting together static collections. So far, we have found a few books being written, some musical transcriptions being error-checked, and some policy documents maintained online.
Does anyone know of any examples of these or other categories? Any pointers much appreciated. Happy to share what we find with anyone interested.
Jim
