# GitHub Repository Setup for LUXBIN

## ✅ Git Initialized & Ready

Your local git repository is ready with a clean commit!

**Important**: LUXBIN is a separate project from QuantumGameDevAI, so it needs its own repository.

---

## 🎯 Create New GitHub Repository for LUXBIN

### Step 1: Create Repository on GitHub

1. Go to [github.com/new](https://github.com/new)
2. Fill in:
   - **Repository name**: `LUXBIN-Demo` (or `luxbin-photonic-language`)
   - **Description**: `⚛️ Photonic Binary Language - Colors are letters, shades are grammar`
   - **Visibility**: ✅ **Public** (recommended for sharing)
   - **Important**: ❌ **DON'T** initialize with README, .gitignore, or license
3. Click **"Create repository"**

### Step 2: Push Your Code

After creating the empty repo, run these commands:

```bash
cd "/Users/nicholechristie/Documents/Unreal Projects/WWYD 5.7/LUXBIN_HF_DEMO"

# Add your new GitHub repo as remote (replace YOUR_USERNAME)
git remote add origin https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/LUXBIN-Demo.git

# Push to GitHub
git branch -M main
git push -u origin main
```

**Example** (if your username is "nichechristie"):
```bash
git remote add origin https://github.com/nichechristie/LUXBIN-Demo.git
git branch -M main
git push -u origin main
```

## 🚀 After Pushing to GitHub

### Option 1: Deploy to Hugging Face from GitHub (Easiest)

1. Go to [huggingface.co/new-space](https://huggingface.co/new-space)
2. Click **"Import from GitHub"**
3. Select your `LUXBIN-Demo` repository
4. Hugging Face automatically:
   - Reads `README.md` for the Space card
   - Installs packages from `requirements.txt`
   - Runs `app.py` as the Gradio app
5. Your demo goes live in 1-2 minutes! ✨

### Option 2: Manual Hugging Face Upload

## 🎯 Two Separate Projects

You now have:

1. **QuantumGameDevAI** - AI-powered game development toolkit
   - Repo: `github.com/nichechristie/QuantumGameDevAI`

2. **LUXBIN-Demo** - Photonic binary language demo
   - Repo: `github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/LUXBIN-Demo` (create this now)

Keep them separate for better organization!
