Download the PageLines Developer Kit to get started.
Code Management
There are several tools that will help you interact with Pagelines. You will first need to use a Git Client to connect to your repository with Pagelines and to upload your application for review. This information will be provided in your Pagelines Developer Program packet. For documentation on how Git works and for some detailed tutorials please visit the Git site.
GitHub (OSX)
With GitHub you can use the sync button to push changes to GitHub and pull down other's changes at the same time.
GitHub also notifies you when you have changes that need pushed or if there are new changes on GitHub that need to be pulled down.
GitHub is where PageLines stores our repository. So you will be able to add your repository to GitHub for Mac and it will automatically match them up with PageLines.
GitHub supports Mac (OSX) only. Download GitHub for free here.
