Adding Your Project to v0
There are two main ways to work with your project in v0:
1. Import an Existing Project to Vercel
You can import your existing project to Vercel, which will make it available to work with in v0 1:
- On the Vercel dashboard, go to the "New Project" page
- Under "Import Git Repository", select your Git provider (GitHub, GitLab, or BitBucket)
- Find and select your repository from the list
- Vercel will automatically detect your framework and configure build settings
- Click "Deploy" to create the project
Once deployed, you can work with this project in v0.
2. Add Code from v0 to Your Existing Project
When I generate code for you in our conversation:
- Open the "Block" view by clicking on the code preview
- Click the "..." menu in the top right corner of the Block view
- Select "Add to codebase" to install the code into your existing project
This handles the installation and setup of required dependencies in your project.
3. Use the Deploy Button
For public Git repositories, you can also use the Vercel Deploy Button to quickly deploy a project 2. This creates a new project on Vercel while cloning the source repository to your Git account.

Importing Your Existing Project from a Git Repository
Here's a step-by-step guide to import your existing project from a Git repository to Vercel 1:
1. Connect to Your Git Provider
- Go to the Vercel dashboard
- Click "Add New..." and select "Project"
Under the "Import Git Repository" section, select your Git provider:
- GitHub
- GitLab
- BitBucket
Follow the prompts to sign in to your chosen Git provider account if you haven't already connected it.
2. Import Your Repository
Once connected, you'll see a list of your repositories:
- Find the repository you want to import in the list
- Click the "Import" button next to it
3. Configure Project Settings
Vercel will automatically detect your framework and configure the optimal build settings. However, you can customize these settings if needed:
- Framework Preset: Vercel will auto-detect your framework, but you can change it
Build & Output Settings: Expand this section to modify:
- Build command
- Output directory
- Install command
- Development command
- Environment Variables: Add any necessary environment variables your project needs
4. Deploy Your Project
Click the "Deploy" button. Vercel will create the project and deploy it based on your configurations.
5. Access Your Deployment
After a successful deployment:
- You'll see a success screen with confetti
- Click on the generated domain URL to view your live deployment
- This URL is now accessible to anyone who has the link
Next Steps
After importing your project, you might want to:
- Add a custom domain to your project
- Set up team collaboration
- Configure project settings further
- Set up preview deployments for pull requests
You can now use v0 to help you make changes and improvements to your imported project!
