Git repositories? What is the best online for free

Android Studio + Kotlin

Hey guys
So, I'm thinking on starting programming again... slowly cause of Burn out

I'll be homesick now for a while and I want to start coding again.
I've been making Apps for Android in App Inventor, but now I want to make stuff that sincerely will be hard on a complete visual programming language.
So, I'll be starting to learn kotlin

My problem now is that I don't do any really programming for years, and most of my knowledge is from 1990's. I want to put my code in a git repository but GitHub doesn't have a free option and I can't spend money now, since I'll gain a lot less.

What are the best alternatives online, or tricks, like online VMs

thanks for the time

    For private git repos, GitLab or bitbucket.

    I'm confused, wich is best?

    Bitbucket has Gb and a build limit to 50 minutes, what does that mean? and does GitLab has the same limits?

    5GB on bitbucket is max size of a repo code base, GitLab offers 10GB.

    Build limit... I’m assuming for CI (Continuous Integration) tools?

    If it is, then you will have access to docker containers which you can setup to run unit testing before releasing your code. One of those extra features you don’t need to use but come in handy.

    As for which is best, there both very similar, bitbucket has better integrations but GitLab is more transparent with any issues, (personally i use GitLab)

    For public probably github is the most well known. For private I'd say gitlab

    If you need help with git, gitkraken might be a handy tool (gui for git).
    I personally started out with the git-cmd and later started using gitKraken in addition because it has nice visualization and diff views.
    Today I use them both and try to know as much commands as possible.

    @LinusCDE I signed up for the release but never actually used it. What's it like?

    @DucksCanCode Like a fancy electron app, that has some nice features.
