Whether you’re ready to launch or want to share work-in-progress updates for feedback, Tempo Labs provides seamless tools to help you collaborate and iterate effectively.

Publishing your app

Once your app is ready to go live, you can deploy it to a unique URL with a single click. Here’s how:

  1. Locate the Share button in the top right corner of the editor. It’s a purple button labeled Share.

  2. Click the Share button to open the sharing dialog.

  3. In the dialog, click the Deploy button to start the publishing process. The app will be deployed to a unique URL.

  4. After deployment, the dialog will display the live URL of your app. You can use this link to share your application with others.

Note: This may take up to two minutes.

Publishing Errors

Occasionally deploying fails. This may result in your unique link showing a “Page not found” message. In this case, wait a few minutes and redeploy.

Collaborating with Team Members

Tempo Labs allows you to collaborate live or asynchronously with your team directly on your Canvas. To add collaborators:

  1. Open the Share dialog.

  2. Enter your team member’s email address to send them an invite.

  3. Once added, collaborators can work with you in real-time or at their convenience.

This feature enables efficient teamwork, whether for building, reviewing, or testing your app.

Previewing your app

Previewing is ideal for sharing updates and gathering feedback before final deployment. Tempo Labs offers multiple ways to preview your app:

Preview a Single Storyboard:

  1. Select a Storyboard in your project.

  2. Above the storyboard, click the Preview option to generate a temporary link.

  3. Share this link with team members to allow them to view and provide feedback on the specific storyboard.

Preview the whole app:

  1. Click the play button found in the top right corner of the canvas

  2. Share this link with team members to allow them to view and provide feedback on the project

Note: These preview links are temporary and only work while the project Canvas is loaded.

For a permanently accessible version, you’ll need to deploy the app.

Opening Locally

If you’d like to test your app in a local environment, first connect your project to GitHub.

You can copy and paste the Open Locally command from the share button dialog into your terminal.

This gives you the flexibility to test your application before deploying it!
