Nikhil Sonnad writes that Microsoft provides developers access to its TypeScript programming language through Github and publishes OSS projects on the company-operated CodePlex site.

The software company wrote on its Github account that “Microsoft has changed as a company and is becoming more open in the way that we collaborate with others.”

Github also features Microsoft’s MS Open Tech subsidiary and Azure cloud computing platform, according to Nextgov.
