Step 1 — create account

Let's create your
GitHub account

You only need to do this once. It's free, takes about 30 seconds, and just needs an email address.

  1. 1
    A new tab just opened with GitHub's signup page. If it didn't, click here to open it.
  2. 2
    Fill in your email, password, and a username. You'll get a verification email — click the link in it.
  3. 3
    Come back to this tab when done. Stay logged in on GitHub — we'll connect to your new account next.
Back
GitHub may ask you to authorize the app on the next screen — that's normal, just click Authorize.
