GitHub
Where your code lives on the internet — like Google Drive but for code.
What is GitHub?
GitHub stores your code online so you don't lose it and can access it anywhere. Lovable and Cursor both connect to GitHub to save your project. Think of it as cloud backup for everything you build.
GitHub also connects to deployment platforms. Once your code is on GitHub, services like Vercel can automatically deploy it whenever you push changes.
In Vibe Coding
Lovable and Bolt both have "Export to GitHub" buttons. Cursor works with GitHub natively. Once your code is on GitHub, you can connect it to Vercel or Railway for automatic deployment.
Example
For example: You build an app in Lovable, click "Export to GitHub," then connect that GitHub repo to Vercel. Now every time you update your code, it automatically goes live.
