Did you say FREE for academic users?
You bet. Bitbucket offers free unlimited public and private repositories for academic users and teams.
How do I get in on this?
Easy. Sign up for a Bitbucket account using your academic email address. We’ll do the rest. We’ve expanded the automatic academic account upgrade process to include all high-level educational domains such as .edu, ac.il, edu.sg, etc.
I’m a student. How is Bitbucket going to help me?
Good question. Here are a few ways:
- Learn DVCS – Git and Mercurial are used by professional dev teams worldwide. Differentiate yourself with Bitbucket.
- Collaborate with classmates and teachers – Easily share code with your peers and professors for quick feedback and easy grading.
- Keep every project, forever – Having a history of your work is a great way to build an online portfolio to showcase to future employers!
