• You need a GitHub account. If you do not have an account, make one on GitHub.
• A repository is a folder on GitHub. It keeps your code and a record of each change.
• Make the repository private. If the repository is public, all people can read your code.
• Do not put secret keys in your code. Read how to find secret keys.

Lovable makes a new repository for your project. You cannot connect a Lovable project to a repository that exists.
