This section of the documentation is intended to get you up-and-running with
real-world GitHub Enterprise Server API applications. We'll go over everything you need to know, from authentication to results manipulation to integrating results with other apps.
Every tutorial will include a project, and each project will be saved and documented in our public
platform-samples repository.
