Presenting your project

How to create a presentation for your project and share it

We cover in this page how to create a presentation of your pages that you can share externally to clients or others. The core principle of this feature is that you can create a presentation (think slides for your pages) that will show all the pages you have defined inside your project.

Previewing your presentation

Before publishing your presentation, you may want to check how it will appear for the people you share it with. From inside your project, click the Preview button at the left of the Share button.

In the preview screen, your pages are displayed on the left side, in the same order as in your Pages panel. At the bottom of the screen, you find the navigation and publication options. You can also use the following keyboard shortcuts to get around:

• P to toggle the page's view

• F to toggle the full-screen view

• ◀️ and ▶️ to navigate between slides

• Esc to leave the Preview

Publishing your presentation

Once you are happy with your presentation, you can publish it to make it available externally through a public link. There are two paths to publish a presentation:

• From the Publish button in the preview screen.

• Through the Share modal.

From the preview screen:

• In the bottom toolbar, you will find the publish button

• Once clicked, your presentation will have a dedicated public URL that can be sent to anyone.

The chevron menu will allow to either refresh your presentation if it has changed, or unpublish your work. Once unpublished, your work will not be available to the people who received your link.

Alternatively, the presentation can be published from the Share modal:

• From the editor, click the Share button in the top right corner

• In the Presentation tab, switch the toggle on in order to publish your presentation

• The modal will offer you a few options to copy the presentation link, to update the URL, to open the presentation, to unpublish the presentation.

Viewing the presentation

Once the presentation has been published, you can display it in a new tab from three places:

• Present button in the editor screen

• Present button in the preview screen

• Open button in the Share menu

This will display the presentation in a new tab exactly as your clients will see it. The same keyboard shortcuts from Previewing your presentation are applicable in the public presentation viewer. Note that this presentation environment can be accessed from any type of device (computer, tablet, smartphone).
