GitHub Integration

Connect your Seemodo projects to GitHub for version control, collaboration with external tools, and code portability.

Connecting your GitHub account

1

Go to Settings → GitHub

Or click the Git icon in any Project Editor.
2

Click Connect GitHub

You’ll be redirected to GitHub to authorize Seemodo.
3

Grant access

Authorize Seemodo with the required scopes (repo, read:org). Choose which organizations Seemodo can access.
4

Connection confirmed

Your GitHub username and avatar appear in Settings. A green dot shows on the Git button in the Project Editor.

Linking a project to a repository

Once your GitHub account is connected, link individual projects:
1

Open the project

Navigate to the Project Editor for the project you want to link.
2

Click the GitHub icon in the toolbar

The GitHub connection dialog opens.
3

Choose an organization

Select your personal account or any organization you have access to from the dropdown.
4

Confirm the connection

A confirmation dialog explains that the project will be synced with GitHub under the selected org/account. Click Transfer anyway to confirm.Seemodo creates a private repository automatically (named after your project). The repository is created server-side — no manual repo selection needed.
5

Done

Your project is now linked. The dialog shows the connection status.

Syncing code

Once connected, the GitHub dialog shows sync controls:

Push to GitHub

Sends your current Seemodo project code to the connected repository:
  1. Click Push
  2. Seemodo commits and pushes all current files
  3. Success message with commit details
  4. Last sync timestamp updates

Pull from GitHub

Fetches the latest code from GitHub into your Seemodo project:
  1. Click Pull
  2. Remote changes are merged into your sandbox
  3. Success message shows how many files were pulled
  4. Live preview updates with the pulled code

View Diff

Before pushing, review what changed:
  1. Click View Diff
  2. A diff viewer opens showing:
    • Added files (green)
    • Modified files (yellow)
    • Deleted files (red)
    • Line-by-line unified diff

Clone URLs

The dialog provides clone URLs in multiple formats:
FormatExample
HTTPShttps://github.com/org/repo.git
SSHgit@github.com:org/repo.git
CLIgh repo clone org/repo
Click the copy icon next to any URL to copy it to your clipboard.

Disconnecting

  1. Open the GitHub dialog for the project
  2. Click Disconnect
  3. Confirm the disconnection
Your repository remains on GitHub — only the sync link is removed.

Git in the Visual Designer sandbox

The Sandbox Panel (terminal icon) has a dedicated Git tab with sandbox-local version control:
FeatureDescription

ChangesList of modified files with status icons (added/modified/deleted/untracked)
CommitWrite a message and commit all changes
HistoryView last 20 commits with hash, author, date, and message
