Previews

Zapp! Flutter projects can access instant previews via the zapp.page domain. This is a great way to share your work with others, or to test your project on different devices.

Preview Example

Previewing your project#

To preview your project, add your project ID as the subdomain to zapp.page.

For example if your project URL is https://zapp.run/edit/my-awesome-app-z41s06g051t0, vist https://my-awesome-app-z41s06g051t0.zapp.page to preview your project.

Note; only the random ID is required - if the project URL changes when updating project information, the preview URL will continue to work for older URLs you might have shared (e.g. https://z41s06g051t0.zapp.page is the only part of the URL that is actually required).

Preview metadata#

The underlying HTML of your preview is pulled directly from the web/index.html file in your project (one is automatically created if you don't have one already). This means you can add any metadata you want to your preview, such as a title, description etc. Visit the file explorer documentation to learn more about the web directory.

Using as a host#

Although your projects are exposed to the world via a uniquely hosted URL, we do not recommend using this service as a host for your Flutter application. We do not provide any guarantees about uptime, and we may change the underlying hosting infrastructure at any time.

Instead, you should opt to using a hosting provider with an underlying CDN, which is able to host your Flutter application behind a cache. Some options include:
