Hi @RebaoneFaithMatlaba

We have a help article to get you started with Github + Local here:

> **[Develop with Local and GitHub](https://localwp.com/help-docs/advanced/developing-with-local-and-github/)**
>
> Local makes it easy for you to quickly get to the business of creating and managing a WordPress site on your local machine and lets you efficiently deploy your site to remote servers on Flywheel and…

You might also need to refer to Github’s sources here:

> **[GitHub Pages](https://pages.github.com/)**
>
> Websites for you and your projects, hosted directly from your GitHub repository. Just edit, push, and your changes are live.

Hey thank you for the article but the logic was to basically push it to an existing github repo that has like a live link so I can run this WordPress Website on that existing GitHubRepo?

**HERE IS A LOGIC RIGHT : I ALREADY HAVE AN EXISTING WEBSITE CALLED: faithmatlaba.co.za for example and my website faithstore.co.za can have pages like faithmatlaba.co.za/about/ or faithmatlaba.co.za/services or faithmatlaba.co.za/contact ------\> so with the local wordpress website I want to push it to the github repo that has my already existing website so it can be something like faithmatlaba.co.za/store**

We don’t have a “Push” feature to Github in the sense of Local Connect with WPE or Flywheel to be able to simply click and send your site up. It would be a bit more of a manual process which is why I shared some of the documentation above. Additionally, it sounds like what you’re describing would be a multisite set is that correct?
