Choose an editor

A deployment can be edited locally or through github.dev. Switching between them does not create another deployment.

Local VS Code

Use this when you want the full desktop editor.

  1. Install Weeble Workspace.

  2. Sign in.

  3. Open a folder.

  4. Run Weeble: Select Deployment.

  5. Edit the downloaded files.

  6. Select the rocket button to deploy.

Selecting a different deployment replaces files managed by the previous selection. Files that the extension does not manage are left alone.

Git and github.dev

Connect a repository when Git should own the project history outside Weeble.

  1. Open the deployment menu in Weeble.

  2. Select Connect repository.

  3. Enter the repository URL and project path.

  4. Open the repository through the Git action.

  5. Use the Weeble extension in github.dev to deploy.

Connecting a repository does not clone, commit, push, or deploy anything by itself.

Disconnect Git

Disconnecting Git removes the repository link.

  • The repository is not deleted or modified.

  • Existing Weeble revisions stay available.

  • The dashboard offers a downloadable VS Code workspace built from the latest revision.

  • Local workspace files such as package.json, tsconfig.json, and .weeble/ are not part of that source.

If the repository contains changes that were never deployed, those changes will not appear in the downloaded workspace.
