Code browser views

TeamHub provides a browser view of code stored in a particular repository. The browser view presents the code in a more accessible, readable form. It also lets you edit the code and commit your changes to the repository. TeamHub supports syntax highlighting for a large number of languages. For a list of supported languages, see Syntax highlighting support.
