INDIA’S BOOMING DEVELOPER POPULATION TO FUELTHE PLATFORM’S GROWTH

- SUDHIR CHOWDHARY

THERE ARE NOW 19.2 million developers on GitHub in India, with around one million joining every three months.

In the US, the user base on this Microsoft-owned developer platform stands at 25.8 million as it targets one billion developers by 2030. India is projected to become the company’s largest developer community globally; this could happen as soon as 2028. It is imperative that the billion users initiative needs to have a strong India connection.

“Enterprises, startups, and students are among the key drivers of this growth,” said Nahas Mohammed, director, Enterprise India, GitHub. “What makes this significant is not just the scale, but the nature of India’s contributions. Developers here are rapidly shaping the future of AI innovation, with contributions to public generative AI projects on GitHub surging 95% in recent months, cementing India as a hub of developer-driven AI activity,’ he added.
