✅ Quick Summary
Push44 handles all git operations internally through GitHub's API. You never need to install git or run a command — you just need a GitHub account and your AI platform credentials.
The Problem
Beginners are often intimidated by git and GitHub, assuming they need to learn command-line git before they can version-control their AI-built app.
How Push44 Solves It
Push44 handles all git operations internally through GitHub's API. You never need to install git or run a command — you just need a GitHub account and your AI platform credentials.
Step-by-Step Guide
Create a free GitHub account
If you don't have one, sign up at github.com — it's free for unlimited public and private repositories.
Generate a Personal Access Token
Follow the token creation steps (see our GitHub connection tutorial) and copy your token.
Connect your AI platform in Push44
Choose Base44, Rocket.new, Floot, or Zite, and enter the credentials for that platform.
Type a new repository name
In Push44's repo field, type a name that doesn't exist yet, like 'my-first-ai-app'. Push44 will create it automatically as part of the push.
Push and view your repo
Click 'Push to GitHub'. Once complete, click the link Push44 provides to view your brand-new repository with all your project files and a first commit.
Pro Tips
- Start with a private repository if your app contains sensitive data or API keys.
- Add a README.md to your new repo afterward describing what the app does — future you will thank you.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Reusing an existing repo name that already contains unrelated files — this can create merge conflicts.
- Skipping the diff review step, which shows you exactly what's about to be committed.
