How Code on the Highway works.
Everything you need to know before purchasing — from payments to running the project on your machine.
How It Works
Code on the Highway is the home of production-ready source code. Each project is a real, working application — not a tutorial or a template. When you purchase a project, you get full access to its private GitHub repository.

Find a project that fits your needs. Read the description, tech stack, and features on the detail page.
Purchase
Complete the checkout using your preferred payment method. The transaction is processed securely.
Get access
Your GitHub account is granted collaborator access to the private repository. Clone it and ship.
Payment Methods
All payments are processed securely. We support a wide range of methods so you can check out in whatever way is most convenient for you.
Credit & Debit Card
Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and most major cards are accepted via Stripe.
PayPal
Pay using your PayPal balance, linked bank account, or any card saved in your PayPal wallet.
Digital Wallets
Google Pay, Apple Pay, Amazon Pay, and Revolut Pay are supported for one-tap checkout.
All transactions are encrypted. We never store your card details.
GitHub & Access
Project source code lives in private GitHub repositories. To receive access after purchasing, you will need a GitHub account. If you don't have one yet, you can create it for free at github.com.
Once your payment is confirmed, your GitHub username is added as a collaborator to the repository. You will receive an invitation by email from GitHub — accept it, and the repository will appear in your account. Access is permanent; you keep it even if the listing is later removed from the products list.
Project Setup
Every project ships with a detailed README.md at the root of the repository. It covers everything you need to go from a fresh clone to a running application, including:
- →Prerequisites — runtime versions, tools, and accounts you need before starting.
- →Installing dependencies — the exact commands to install all packages.
- →Environment variables — a full list of every required `.env` variable, what each one does, and where to get it.
- →Database setup — migrations, seeding, or any schema steps needed.
- →Running locally — how to start the development server and verify everything is working.
- →Deploying to production — recommended hosting options and deployment steps.
If you get stuck at any step, open an issue in the repository and we'll help you out.
Expansions
Some projects will offer expansions — optional add-ons that extend the base application with additional features. Expansions are completely optional: your app works perfectly without them.
How expansions are structured
Required. The fully working application.
Requires the base project. Adds a first layer of extra features.
Requires the base project and Expansion 1. Builds on top of both.
Expansions follow a strict order: to purchase Expansion 2, you must already own Expansion 1; to purchase Expansion 1, you must already own the base project. This ensures every bundle integrates cleanly with the code you already have.
Bundle availability varies per project. Not all projects will have expansions — and new expansions can be added to existing projects over time, so it's worth checking back.
