A code repository, also referred to as a code repo, is a place where developers can store, share and collaborate on the source code of a software project. Beyond the code itself, you can keep documentation, notes, web pages, and other items in your repository.

A library stores books, a compilation of information and resources, that can be shared by many people. A library has different sections for different types of books, keeping the information it stores in an organized manner. A library also has a system to track who checks out book, ensuring that it tracks version controls of its stock of information.

Some libraries are public, like a local Public Library, whereas other libraries may be private, like a school's library, which is reserved only for students and faculty.

A code repository is the home for source code and it's relevant resources, allowing collaboration between developers.
