# Storefronts

The Hydrogen channel allows you to create multiple storefronts. Each storefront is linked to a single Hydrogen app, connected through a GitHub repository.

Storefronts can have multiple [environments](https://shopify.dev/docs/storefronts/headless/hydrogen/environments), which contain [deployments](https://shopify.dev/docs/storefronts/headless/hydrogen/deployments).

## Create a new storefront by connecting an existing Git​Hub repository

If you already [created a Hydrogen app](https://shopify.dev/docs/storefronts/headless/hydrogen/getting-started) and pushed it to GitHub, then you can connect that repo to a new Hydrogen storefront.

1. In the Hydrogen channel, click **Create storefront**.
2. Click **Connect existing repository**.
3. Under **Account**, select the GitHub account or organization that contains the Hydrogen repo.
4. Under **Repository**, select the repo.
5. Click **Connect**.

After connecting the repo, Shopify automatically opens a pull request to add an Oxygen deployment workflow file. Merge the PR to start continuous deployment to Oxygen.

## Create a new storefront by creating a new Git​Hub repository
