# Deploy App

> Deploy your Michelangelo app to the App Store

Michelangelo helps you generate production-ready mobile code. To ship a generated app as a standalone product, you export the source code and build it with your own credentials.

## Export to GitHub

The recommended path for standalone deployment is through GitHub:

1. Open your project in the Michelangelo editor.
2. Go to **App Settings → Tools → GitHub → Settings**.
3. Connect your GitHub account and select an installation.
4. Tap **Push** to create a repository and commit the current files.

From there, you can clone the repository and build the app using your preferred mobile build service or Xcode.

## Build and Submit

After pushing to GitHub:

1. Configure your own app identifier, signing certificates, and App Store credentials.
2. Run a build for iOS.
3. Submit the build to TestFlight or the App Store.

## Public Preview as Distribution

If you do not need a standalone binary, the public preview link is the fastest distribution method:

```
https://michelangelo.land/preview/{projectId}
```

Share this link to let anyone try your app instantly.

## Deploying the Michelangelo App Itself

The **Michelangelo: Vibe Coding** iOS app is built and distributed separately by the Michelangelo team. This process is independent from deploying your generated projects.
