Deploy
How to deploy your Same projects and share them with the world.
Deployment brings your project online. Same integrates with Netlify to generate a permanent domain that anyone can access. You can claim the deployment to take control and customize the domain.
Trigger deployment
Same often deploys automatically when a task seems complete. You can also directly tell Same to deploy at any point:
Same will automatically clean up your code, solve errors, and deploy for you.
If the deployment attempt failed, just tell Same to debug and retry:
Deployment URLs
After deployment, you’ll get:
- Preview Domain: A unique URL for that specific deployment. Good for testing.
- Main Domain: The primary project URL that stays updated with your latest deployed version.
Share your main domain with friends or on social media to let others visit your site. You can always find the domain by clicking Deployed button.
Claim deployment
You can claim deployment in Netlify to transfer the site to your own account and setup domains.
To claim the deployment
- Click Deployed button
- Click Claim Deployment
- You will be redirected to Netlify, follow the instructions to claim
Domain customization is not yet available within Same. Claim your project via Netlify and follow their domain setup instructions.
Manage deployment
You can take down the deployment to unpublish your project. A project taken down can be redeployed, and the main domain stays the same.
To take down deployment
- Click Deployed button
- Click Take down
To redeploy
- Click Deploy button
- Click Redeploy
