How to create pull requests in GitHub
Friday, January 2, 2026
Pull requests facilitate code review, discussion, and controlled integration of changes in collaborative software development workflows. As the creator of CoreUI, a widely used open-source UI library, I’ve created and reviewed thousands of pull requests throughout my 25 years of development experience. The most effective approach is pushing feature branches to GitHub and creating pull requests through the web interface with clear descriptions. This method enables comprehensive code review, automated testing, and maintains clean project history through structured merge workflows.
