# Notes: Replit + GitHub Integration ### Connecting Replit to Github Connecting Replit to Github involves installing Replit on GitHub by connecting the GitHub service to Replit, and requesting authorization from GitHub to allow the Replit user to push code to GitHub. Our process starts by writing code. In order to push this code to GitHub we need create a GitHub repository. The steps below will connect us to GitHub, create a repository and push the code to GitHub. We only need to run the step that connect to GitHub the first time we want to push code from Replit. After that, the connection will be setup and we only need to use the Replit Git User Interface to authorize the user and create a repository and push code. This [video](https://youtu.be/iKlMfhc9RJU?si=wkdcFoi85qjTZiIx) will walk you through the Replit+GitHub Integration.

Step	Notes
Add a README.md file	The README markdown file appears on the GitHub website and describes the Repository (this is optional but if you don't do it, GitHub will indicated that you should)
Connect GitHub Service in Replit and Authorize in GitHub	Navigate to Account in Replit to find Connected Services
Authorize Replit Account to add and change code in GitHub Repository	You will get prompted to Authorize if you have not already done so.
Create Repository	You only need to create the repository once per Replit project.
Commit changes with a message and "Sync with Remote" changes to GitHub from Replit.	When ever you make a set of changes to your code, you'll click on Sync to move the code into GitHub.

### Step Through Replit/GitHub Integration Install Replit On GitHub By Registerig it as a Connect Service in your Replit Account.

GitHub is Connected When Connect Services offers Disconnect Link

GitHub will show Replit as an Installed App When Replit Shows GitHub Services Connected

#### Create or Open a Repl That is Not Integrated with GitHub

Check the "Create initial commit with all changes" or you will be prompted later to set up your first commit.

Click on blue link to go to Git Settings View

Enter Values for Remote, Repository Name, and Select Default Replit User or Authorize New User

Click on Create Repository to create a new Repository on GitHub. Replit needs to know the GitHub account name labeled Remote () and the Repository name (HelloWorld2). Select "Public" for Privacy and then click to create the repository on GitHub. Click the radio button (blue circle) next to Default Profile. If this is the first time you've created a GitHub repository, this will not exist and you'll have to click on GitHub Settings as shown in the lower commit author to authorize this user.

Click on "Create Repository on GitHub" Button

A few seconds after you click on the "Create Respository on Github" button, you'll see the green message on the bottom right letting you know that the repository was successfully created. You can return to the main Git view by clicking on the "<" Settings at the top.

Cick Confirm to continue to push the code

You may get prompted to authorize the push and to sign in to GitHub.

You are signing on to GitHub here so use your Github Account Name and Password.

Now you can continue modifying code and syncing to GitHub.
