Save an MPLAB Xpress project into GitHub

There are two ways to permanently save microcontroller programming projects that you have created in the MPLAB Xpress Cloud-based IDE instead of relying on the temporary MPLAB Xpress cloud sandbox:

1. Save your project into a GitHub cloud repository, or
2. Export your project into a .zip file downloaded to your computer.

This short video demonstrates the first method, showing you how to securely save a new MPLAB Xpress project into a GitHub repository using a GitHub personal access token.

Saving a project into GitHub provides you with convenient cloud access to your project from either MPLAB Xpress or MPLAB X, and allows you to more easily share your project with a team, or with your teacher in an educational setting.

Saving a project into GitHub requires you to have a GitHub account. You can easily create one here:
