    How the Base44 GitHub integration works in real workflows



    Base44 GitHub integration how it works


    The Base44 GitHub integration, and other powerful Base44 integrations, aren’t just about syncing code; they’re designed to support real development workflows. Here’s how they help you build, collaborate and scale your app without leaving Base44 behind.


    Here’s how it works in practice:




    01. Sync with a real codebase


    Base44 makes building fast and intuitive, but GitHub is where your app becomes a long-term, trackable codebase. With the integration, your project no longer “lives only in Base44.” Every change is backed by a GitHub repository you can:


    • Track progress over time

    • Share with teammates

    • Deploy confidently to staging or production


    This ensures your app grows sustainably, without losing the speed and flexibility of Base44.

    02. Fast builds, clear versioning


    You can continue to use all the features that make Base44 fast: prompts, quick edits and rapid iteration. Meanwhile, GitHub handles what it does best:


    • Commit history

    • Detailed diffs

    • A clear record of every change


    This division of responsibilities means you stay productive while maintaining a reliable, auditable codebase.


    "The best apps are built with iteration in mind. You don’t need to launch with every feature under the sun. Start small, test with real users and refine based on feedback. Base44 makes it easy to adapt and evolve your app as you learn." - Ilay Granot, Marketing at Base44

    Learn more:



    03. Seamless team collaboration


    If your team already works in GitHub, the integration makes collaboration effortless. Base44 works alongside your existing tools, allowing you to:


    • Create and manage branches

    • Submit pull requests

    • Review changes and see commit history


    You get all the collaboration benefits of GitHub without sacrificing Base44’s speed.



    04. Scale without sacrificing speed


    Serious apps shouldn’t force you to leave Base44 behind. The GitHub integration lets you bring GitHub into your workflow only when you need it, so your app scales naturally.


    You can keep iterating fast in Base44 while GitHub supports:


    • Version control for complex projects

    • Team collaboration

    • Deployment pipelines


    "One of the most overlooked aspects of app building is scalability. It’s not just about launching your app, it’s about ensuring it can grow with your audience. Base44 is built with scalability in mind, so you’re not stuck rebuilding when your app takes off." - Ilay Granot, Marketing at Base44

    05. Multiple developers, one app


    Multiple developers can contribute to the same project via GitHub, while Base44 stays fully synced. You’ll always see:


    • Sync states for each update

    • Commit activity and context

    • Updates flowing automatically between Base44 and GitHub


    This keeps everyone aligned, reduces conflicts and ensures your app evolves smoothly as your team grows.


    Here's what you can do with Base44:



    Base44 GitHub integration: smooth, real-time sync



    Base44 GitHub integration real-time sync


    The GitHub integration connects your Base44 app to a GitHub repository and keeps the two perfectly aligned as you work. No more manual copying or messy workflows, everything syncs seamlessly.


    Here’s what it enables:


    • Real GitHub repo for your app: Your Base44 project is backed by a proper repository you can track, share and deploy.


    • Sync changes from Base44 to GitHub: Updates made in Base44, including via prompts, are automatically committed to your repository.


    • Sync changes from GitHub to Base44: Edits pushed directly to GitHub are reflected back in Base44, keeping your app and repo fully aligned.


    • See sync activity in Base44: Track commit context and sync status directly in Base44, with links to the corresponding GitHub commits.


    The integration is designed for how developers actually build: part of your workflow in Base44, part locally, part in GitHub.

    Who is the Base44 GitHub integration for?


    The Base44 GitHub integration is designed for developers and teams who want the speed and flexibility of Base44 combined with the reliability and collaboration features of GitHub. It’s especially useful if you:


    • Want version control without changing how you build

    • Need to invite more developers into the project

    • Want PR reviews, diffs and a clear commit history

    • Are prepping for external deployment

    • Want Base44 and GitHub to stay aligned as your app grows



    How the Base44 GitHub integration works in practice



    How the Base44 GitHub integration works in practice


    Here are a few real-world scenarios showing how the integration can fit into your workflow:



    01. Build in Base44, review in GitHub


    As you iterate in Base44, tweaking UI, adding features or experimenting with prompts, every update syncs automatically to GitHub as commits. This allows you to:


    • Review exactly what changed

    • Track progress over time

    • Share the repository with teammates

    • Roll changes forward with confidence



    02. A teammate hotfixes in GitHub, Base44 catches up


    When a teammate pushes a fix or feature directly in GitHub, Base44 automatically syncs to reflect those changes. No manual copying, no guesswork, everyone stays on the same page.



    03. Deploy outside Base44 without losing your workflow


    Some teams prefer to deploy via their own CI/CD pipelines. The GitHub integration makes this seamless: GitHub acts as a bridge to external deployments while Base44 remains your primary build environment. You can continue iterating fast without breaking your workflow.



    04. See commits directly in Base44


    This integration isn’t just about sending code to GitHub, it makes activity visible in Base44. When a sync occurs, you can see:


    • A sync status visualization in the builder

    • A chat message with the commit title

    • A direct link to the corresponding GitHub commit


    No more guessing whether updates have applied, you can watch changes happen in real time.



    A note on sync behavior


    The GitHub integration supports two-way updates, and the auto-sync experience is continually improving. In some cases, syncing may require a refresh, but the system is being refined to make updates seamless across all workflows.


    (Translation: it’s already useful today, and it’s getting smoother fast.)
