SloopEngine repository

What is the purpose of the SloopEngine repository?

The SloopEngine repository serves as a vital link between a Git repository and a SloopEngine workspace. With this connection, developers can efficiently manage and develop their source code in a streamlined and organized manner.

Understanding SloopEngine repository

A SloopEngine repository is a crucial element of the SloopEngine IDE feature. It serves as a platform to store and manage software source code within the SloopEngine workspace. Currently, SloopEngine only supports Git, which means that only Git repositories can be linked to the SloopEngine repository.

To link a Git repository to your SloopEngine workspace, you must provide the SSH-based Git URL of the repository. Once the repository is linked successfully, you will be able to access and manage it within the SloopEngine workspace. This will enable you to edit, develop, and deploy your source code using the SloopEngine IDE.

By linking your repository to the SloopEngine workspace, you will have access to all the features of the SloopEngine IDE, which includes code editing, debugging, and testing. Additionally, the SloopEngine repository provides a safe and secure way to store your source code, ensuring that it's protected from any unauthorized access. This makes it an ideal platform for teams to collaborate on projects, as it enables them to manage the source code more efficiently and effectively.

Create SloopEngine repository

In broad terms, a SloopEngine repository denotes a Git repository that encompasses the software's source code intended for development. Currently, SloopEngine exclusively accommodates and operates with Git repositories. This means that it focuses solely on facilitating version control, collaboration, and management of code using the Git version control system.
