Connecting GitHub

Updated Sep 9, 2026

Connecting GitHub gives you a private repository in your own account that receives every version of your app as Quiny builds it. It is optional; you can always download a zip instead.

Steps

  1. In the console open Settings, then Connections, then GitHub.
  2. Press Connect and sign in to GitHub if asked. GitHub shows the Quiny app asking for permission.
  3. Choose Only select repositories. Quiny creates a new private repository named after your workspace and asks for access to that one only, never your whole account.
  4. Approve. Back in Quiny you see the repository name and a link.

What happens next

Every version in the console becomes a commit on the main branch, with the same message you typed. Quiny pushes to new branches for larger changes and never force pushes or deletes.

If a developer changes the code

Quiny reads their commits before making any further changes of its own. If a change conflicts with what you asked for, Quiny tells you in plain words rather than overwriting it.

Removing access

Settings, then Connections, then remove next to GitHub, or uninstall the Quiny app under your GitHub settings. The repository and its history stay yours.
