# Export and run elsewhere

Mythex does not offer a “self-host Mythex” product. You **own the code** and can leave with export or GitHub.

## Export

**Project settings → Export** → download `.tar.gz` (secrets and `node_modules` excluded).

## GitHub

Connect GitHub and push/pull from project settings. See [GitHub, export, and import](/features/github-and-export).

## Run elsewhere

After export or clone:

1. Install dependencies for your stack
2. Recreate env vars from Mythex secrets (manually)
3. Deploy to the host of your choice (Vercel, Fly, your VPS, etc.)

Published Mythex hosting is separate — [unpublish](/publish/unpublish) when you cut over if you no longer need the Mythex URL.
