Using create-react-app and connecting it to my git repository?

Question

Apologize up front as I am super new to React. I run the command npx create-react-app {test-app} and I understand that it creates a git repository for me. My confusion is I don't understand how I connect my github page to that repository. (if that makes sense) connect my newly created GitHub repo page connected to React project Hope this makes sense.

Answer 1

You can create a Github repository. Then copy the link to clone the repository. Next you can head towards the react project folder and open the terminal.

Run git remote add origin <url_you_copied>. After that you can do, add commit push operations.

Answer 2

Run the below commands:

git init
git remote add origin <url you copied>

git init initializes a local git repo. git remote add origin <url you copied> is just what repo to push the code to.

Then, to push a commit:

git add .
git commit -m "commit message"
git push origin main
