import reflex as rx
Download creates a one-time source export for local development or self-hosting.

The archive contains the app source, assets, dependency manifests, and Reflex configuration needed to continue development.
Secrets, integration credentials, and other protected project values are not a portable part of the source export. Configure them separately in the destination environment and never commit them to source control.
For ongoing source control, connect this app to GitHub to push and pull its code. To start Reflex Build work from an existing GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Azure DevOps, or other Git repository, connect a Project Repository.
