In short: Go to your Shipper dashboard, click “Import Code”, choose GitHub or Upload, and Shipper will bring your existing code into your project.

This makes it easy to switch to Shipper without throwing away work.

You keep your existing code, but gain Shipper’s editor, AI assistance, hosting, and deployment tools in one place.

What’s meant by importing code?

Our “Import Code” feature lets you bring an existing app or codebase into Shipper.

This is useful if:

• You’re coming from another platform or builder
• You already have a working app
• You have code in a GitHub repository
• You want to continue building on top of existing code using Shipper

Instead of starting from scratch, you import what you already have.

How to import your existing app’s code into Shipper

1. Go to your Shipper dashboard
2. Click “Import Code”

1. Choose one of the options:
   • GitHub: paste your repository URL
   • Upload: upload your code files directly
