### 1. Publishing Your Project

1. In the top-right corner of the editor, click **Publish**.
2. If you’ve never published before, you’ll see **Publish Now**. Click it to go live.
3. **Pre-publish checks**- When you're ready to publish, Maker will guide you through security and quality checks before going live.&#x20;
4. After publishing, you can choose how to deploy: either embed the project into an existing page on your website, or connect it to a custom domain. If you share a URL where you want to embed it, Maker will detect the platform and provide step-by-step instructions specific to that platform, along with the embed code you'll need.

### 2. Preview vs. Published

<table data-card-size="large" data-view="cards"><thead><tr><th></th><th></th><th data-hidden data-card-cover data-type="files"></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>Live Preview</strong></td><td>Every change you make shows up instantly in the right-hand preview pane. This is your “draft” view—perfect for iterating before anyone else sees it.</td><td><a href="/files/DXL3FnxHNuGxFPE3J1Xh">/files/DXL3FnxHNuGxFPE3J1Xh</a></td></tr><tr><td><strong>Published URL</strong></td><td>Once you hit <strong>Publish</strong>, Maker assigns a permanent public URL (or private link) that you can share with teammates or embed on your site.</td><td><a href="/files/F3V1LK403l5lNr9GTRXX">/files/F3V1LK403l5lNr9GTRXX</a></td></tr></tbody></table>

### 3. Managing Privacy

* **Make Public/Private**: Click the ▼ arrow on the top left, then choose **Make Private** to restrict access or **Make Public**. This option is available only on the Pro and Team plans.&#x20;

***

### 4. Quick Actions

Click the project name dropdown (upper-left) for shortcut actions:

* **Make Private**
* **Duplicate** (create a copy)
* **Remix** (fork a shareable template)
* **Save to Brand Style** (capture current theme)

> 📌 Tip: Use Duplicate before major refactors so you can always roll back to a known state.

***

### 5. Rollback & Versioning

Maker keeps your code history automatically. If you need to revert:

1. Click the **Version** **History** found under the Publish dropdown.
2. Browse snapshots by timestamp.
3. Click **Rollback** on any version to restore the editor back to that point.
