Use this checklist after your hosted Preview is ready. Publishing is a separate step that makes main public.

1. Check readiness in Preview

  • Deploy the final Branch with fimo deploy.
  • Open the Preview link as a signed-in project member.
  • Check key pages, forms, links, mobile layouts, page titles, and descriptions.
  • Run fimo status and merge the reviewed Branch into main.

2. Choose the public URL

Every project has a *.fimo.site URL. You can rename its slug before launch:
If your plan includes custom domains, attach a hostname you already own and add every DNS record that Fimo returns. Domain purchase through Fimo appears only when it is available for your organization. See Custom domains.
The default URL and attached custom domains start serving the site after the first successful publish.

3. Publish production

Choose one procedure:
  • In the CLI, check out main and run fimo deploy --publish.
  • In Studio, open the Publish panel and select Publish.
Both procedures publish the project. Use the one that matches where you are working.

4. Verify the live site

  • Open the production URL shown after publishing.
  • Repeat the key page, form, link, mobile, and metadata checks on the live site.
  • Confirm attached domains have reached their active state before sharing them.
  • Use Analytics to review production traffic after launch.

5. Keep a recovery path

Create a named restore point before a risky launch if you need an easy reference:
If you need to recover, restore the chosen version, review it in Preview, then publish it. Restoring alone does not update the public site.
