What is GitKraken Desktop?

GitKraken Desktop: Smarter Git Without the Headaches Used by over 40 million developers across 100,000+ organizations, GitKraken Desktop simplifies Git so you can focus on writing code... not wrangling branches. Whether you're pushing from the terminal, staging in your IDE, or collaborating in the cloud, GitKraken brings clarity and control to your workflow. With built-in AI tools, intuitive visualizations, and seamless integrations with top Git platforms like GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, and Azure, you get powerful Git functionality without the chaos. Fast, polished, and built for cross-platform dev teams, GitKraken Desktop keeps your projects moving and your repo in check.

What is GitHub Desktop?

Focus on what is essential instead of wrestling with Git. Whether you are a newcomer to Git or have extensive experience, GitHub Desktop simplifies your development workflow. You can effortlessly add co-authors to your commits, which is particularly beneficial for teamwork and serves as a great way to recognize that one person who helped fix a challenging bug. The history page shows attribution clearly, allows easy reversal of any unintended attributions, and lists all co-authors on GitHub. Moreover, you can keep track of all open pull requests in your repositories and engage with them as if they were local branches, regardless of whether they come from upstream branches or forks. It's also useful to identify which pull requests have passed their commit status checks! The latest iteration of GitHub Desktop improves your experience by introducing syntax highlighting for diffs in multiple programming languages. You can conveniently compare altered images side by side, fading between them or concentrating on specific changes. The app also enables you to open your preferred editor or terminal directly, or return to GitHub Desktop from your shell seamlessly. With these capabilities, GitHub Desktop not only eases version control but also nurtures a more collaborative and productive development atmosphere, making it an invaluable tool for developers of all levels.
