The Tempo GitHub integration offers a powerful solution for developers using Tempo's no-code platform.

By syncing Tempo with GitHub, you can enjoy the benefits of code versioning, collaboration, and backup – all while working within Tempo's intuitive interface.

In this guide, we'll walk you through the process of setting up the Tempo GitHub integration, pushing changes, and implementing best practices for code version control.

Let's dive into how you can leverage this powerful combination to enhance your development process.

Setting Up Tempo GitHub Integration

Getting started with the Tempo GitHub integration is straightforward. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you set it up:

Step 1: Access Git Settings in Tempo

First, navigate to the left side of your Tempo project and locate the gear icon for Git settings. Click on this icon to begin the integration process.

Step 2: Create a New GitHub Repository

Once in the Git settings, you'll see an option to "Create Repository." This feature allows you to create a new GitHub repository directly from your Tempo project.

Step 3: Install the Tempo GitHub App

You may encounter a notification prompting you to install the Tempo GitHub app. Follow the instructions to install and authorize the app, granting it the necessary permissions to interact with your GitHub account.

Step 4: Authorize Tempo-GitHub Connection

Complete the authorization process, which may include two-factor authentication if you have it enabled on your GitHub account. Once authorized, Tempo will automatically sign you back in.

Pushing Tempo Changes to GitHub

Now that you've set up the integration, let's explore how to push your Tempo changes to GitHub:

Step 1: Make Changes in Tempo Editor

Start by making the desired changes to your project within the Tempo editor. For example, you might update the color of a button or modify some text. This is done through the chat feature.

Step 2: Commit Changes Within Tempo

After making your changes, return to the Git settings on the left side of Tempo. You'll now see an option to commit your changes. Add a descriptive commit message to explain what you've modified.

Step 3: Push Committed Changes to GitHub

Once you've committed your changes, you can push them to your GitHub repository. This action will sync your Tempo project with your GitHub repo, ensuring your code is safely stored and versioned.

Best Practices for Tempo Code Version Control

To make the most of the Tempo GitHub integration, consider implementing these best practices:

• Regular commits and pushes: Frequently commit and push your changes to maintain an up-to-date repository and minimize the risk of losing work.
• Use branches for separate work streams: Create different branches for various features or experiments, allowing you to work on multiple aspects of your project without affecting the main codebase.
• Pull updates from GitHub to Tempo: Regularly sync your Tempo project with the latest changes from GitHub, especially when collaborating with others.
• Store code off-platform: Utilize GitHub as a backup solution, ensuring your code is safely stored outside of Tempo's platform.

Advantages of Tempo GitHub Integration

Integrating Tempo with GitHub offers several benefits for developers:

• Enhanced code backup and security: Your code is safely stored on GitHub, providing an additional layer of protection against data loss.
• Collaboration possibilities: GitHub's collaboration features allow multiple team members to work on the same project efficiently.
• Integration with other development tools: GitHub's extensive ecosystem enables you to connect your Tempo projects with various development and productivity tools.
• Version control: Track changes, revert to previous versions, and manage your project's history with ease.
