How do I install apps from public git repo?

[Scott_Chapman]

Honestly, I’ve googled this and read the docs but don’t understand it…

I’ve got my own fork now, and it is integrated with the IDE. But how do I install apps from it exactly?

I’ve installed a couple of apps from someone else’s own personal repo (instructions to copy/paste code into IDE).

I’m assume that the integration is a little more sophisticated than that, like being able to install from git and update with changes? How do I do that!??

in the IDE under Smart Apps click update from repo

Chose the repo

You have 3 sections, you are interested in the last one “New Only in Github”

Check the one you want and then click execute update down at the bottom. You also have a check box to publish if you want to publish it without editing as well
