Is GitHub down right now? We check GitHub's official status page as you arrive, then show any outage, its 90-day uptime and what to use instead.
Other code hosting services that are working right now.
Email us and we'll tell you when GitHub reports a major outage, and when it's working again.
You sign up by sending one email, so nobody else can use your address. Every alert has a stop link. Add "all problems" to the subject to hear about small problems too.
Uptime and history
The record covers the last 86 days so far. Grey days fill in by themselves as time goes on.
With 31 other apps in Developer tools and hosting over the last 90 days, by what each reports on its own status page.
How well GitHub keeps people informed when something goes wrong.
Posting small problems openly is a good sign. An app that reports more problems isn't necessarily less reliable than one that reports fewer.

GitHub is made by Microsoft. On Appys it’s listed under Developer tools and hosting, with the other code hosting services we follow. Every status and figure on this page comes from GitHub’s official status page, where GitHub’s own team posts problems and fixes.
Appys is independent and isn’t connected with the apps it lists. Statuses come from each app’s own status page. How Appys checks apps.
