About your personal account on GitHub
To get started with GitHub.com, you need to a personal account and a verified email address.
When creating a free account on GitHub.com, you can also authenticate with Google or Apple - which are the supported social login providers. For iOS users, even if you have enabled the setting "Hide My Email addresses" for your Apple account, using social login will result in creating a new GitHub account.
Todas as pessoas que usam o GitHub se conectam em uma conta de usuário. Sua conta de usuário é a sua identidade no GitHub e tem um nome de usuário e um perfil. Por exemplo, confira o perfil de @octocat.
Later, you can explore the different types of accounts that GitHub offers, and decide if you need a billing plan. For more information, see Tipos de contas de GitHub and Planos do GitHub.

Signing up for a new personal account
- Navigate to https://github.com/signup.
- Alternatively, click on Continue with Google to sign up using social login.
- Follow the prompts to create your personal account.
During sign up, you'll be asked to verify your email address. Without a verified email address, you won't be able to complete some basic GitHub tasks, such as creating a repository.
Some enterprises create contas de usuário gerenciadas for their users. You can't sign up for a personal account with an email address that's already verified for a conta de usuário gerenciada.
If you're having problems verifying your email address, there are some troubleshooting steps you can take. For more information, see Resolver problemas na verificação de e-mail.
