Can I develop my desktop programs and lift to Github, and work that way with versioning my program with Git?

Or can I only raise web projects for Github?

    Explain your doubt better. What would "raise"?

Github is just a repository of projects, it doesn’t know what language it was written in, what technology it used, in what form or other features its project has. So of course you can put a "desktop" project. In fact it doesn’t even need to be a software, even if it is more suitable for this.

You communicate with him basically through Git. Everyone can take his files, create a Fork and ask to merge any changes they have made. Some may merge directly, you have control over it. Github is just a centralizer that serves as a copy of your project and allows other people to access it conveniently. Of course it has some extra tools to communicate with the users/developers of your project, but they are secondary features.

Free use requires that the project be opened. If you want to keep it closed, you must use a paid account. Now has the possibility of some free private projects.
