Import from GitHub

Already have a project on GitHub? Bring it into bychat and keep building it in chat. We read the repo, figure out how it builds and runs, and set up a live preview.

1. On your dashboard, open the New app menu and choose Import from GitHub.
2. Connect your GitHub account if you haven't yet, then browse your repositories or paste a repo URL.
3. Pick the branch you want to start from (main is selected by default).
4. bychat scans the repo and shows what it found — the framework, build and run commands, and any environment settings.
5. Review the summary and confirm. Your project opens with a live preview, ready to edit in chat.

Your code stays yours — importing makes a working copy bychat can build and preview; you can connect and get the repo back to your own account at any time.
