✅ Quick Summary

Push44 connects using your Zite session (cookies from your logged-in build.fillout.com account) to read your app's template files, then pushes the complete source to a GitHub repository you control. It costs nothing because it doesn't depend on any Zite API tier — just your existing session.

The Problem

Zite doesn't advertise any way to get your source code out to GitHub, which makes it easy to assume you're locked in unless you pay for some export add-on. No such paid export tier exists — the gap is simply that no built-in export feature has been built yet.

How Push44 Solves It

Push44 connects using your Zite session (cookies from your logged-in build.fillout.com account) to read your app's template files, then pushes the complete source to a GitHub repository you control. It costs nothing because it doesn't depend on any Zite API tier — just your existing session.

Step-by-Step Guide

1

Log into Zite (build.fillout.com) as usual

Push44 needs your active Zite session to read your app's template and file data.

2

Get a free GitHub Personal Access Token

Go to github.com/settings/tokens and generate a token with 'repo' scope — free for any GitHub account.

3

Open Push44 and select Zite

Visit push44.vercel.app, click Launch App, choose Zite, and connect using your session plus your GitHub PAT.

4

Select your Zite app and push

Push44 reads the app's template files and pushes them to your chosen GitHub repository as a real commit, ready to clone or continue developing outside Zite.

Pro Tips

  • If your session expires, log back into Zite in the same browser before retrying the export.
  • Push44 only reads your project's template data — it never modifies your live Zite app.
  • This same approach works regardless of whether your Zite app has been published to the web yet.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

⚠️ Watch Out For
  • Assuming there's a paid 'export' feature to unlock — there currently isn't one built into Zite at all.
  • Trying to connect without being actively logged into Zite in the same browser session.

Ready to Export?

Push44 is free, open source, and takes under 2 minutes to set up.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Zite offer an official GitHub export?
Not currently. There's no built-in export feature, which is why a free session-based tool like Push44 fills the gap.
Do I need a paid Zite plan for this to work?
No. This relies on your logged-in session, not a paid API tier, so it works on any Zite account.
Is my Zite session data safe when using Push44?
Yes — session data is used only to read your own project and is not sent to any third-party server beyond what's needed to complete the export.
