Manage Projects

Projects is the main workspace list for finding, organizing, opening, and maintaining your HappySeeds projects.

What you can do here

Use the Projects page when you need to manage multiple apps instead of working inside just one of them.

From Projects, you can:

  • search by project name
  • sort by newest first or oldest first
  • filter by deployment status
  • filter by visibility such as public or private
  • reopen a project to continue editing
  • rename a project
  • inspect project details
  • copy preview or public links
  • publish or unpublish a project for marketplace-style discovery and remix
  • delete a project you no longer want

If you only need to jump back into something recent, the sidebar is faster. If you need to compare, clean up, or organize several projects, use the full Projects page.

Search, sort, and filter

Open Projects from the sidebar, then narrow the list before you click into anything.

The quickest controls are:

  • search when you remember part of the project name
  • Newest first when you are continuing current work
  • Oldest first when you are cleaning up older drafts
  • Deployed when you only want live or published work
  • Not deployed when you want unfinished drafts
  • Public or Private when visibility matters

This matters once you have many similar experiments. Filtering first is safer than opening the wrong project and editing it by accident.

Open the right project

Project cards show the basic state of each project, including title, preview image when available, and deployment status.

Open an existing project when:

  • the audience is the same
  • the structure is already close
  • the brand direction is still relevant
  • you want to iterate instead of restarting

Create a new project instead when the goal is genuinely different. A new product, new audience, or new structure usually deserves its own project rather than a heavy rewrite of an old one.

Rename early

Rename a project as soon as it becomes important.

Good names make it easier to:

  • find the correct draft later
  • distinguish similar client or campaign work
  • avoid editing the wrong published app
  • keep the sidebar and project list readable

If a project still has a vague draft name after its direction is clear, fix the name early instead of waiting until you have several near-duplicates.

Check project details

The Details view is useful when you need to inspect basic project metadata without opening the full workspace.

Use it to check:

  • the current project name
  • the share link if the app is deployed
  • the owner
  • when it was created
  • credits used so far

This is useful for deciding whether a project is still worth keeping, whether it is the right one to share, or whether an old draft consumed more credits than expected.

From a project card, you can copy:

  • the preview link for workspace-style review
  • the public link when the project has been deployed

If a project is already deployed, you can also control whether it is public and remixable through marketplace-style sharing.

Use public visibility when:

  • the project is meant to be discoverable
  • you want other people to remix it
  • the app is clean enough to serve as an example

Keep it private when:

  • the project is unfinished
  • it contains client-specific or internal work
  • you do not want it reused as a public starting point

Delete carefully

Delete projects when they are outdated, duplicated, or no longer worth keeping.

Before deleting, double-check:

  • it is not the draft you still need
  • you already copied any links or information you care about
  • it is not the version currently serving as your best base

If you are unsure, rename it more clearly first and keep it a little longer. Deleting should be for projects you are confident you do not need.

A simple cleanup routine

If your workspace starts getting messy, this routine is usually enough:

  1. Search for the project family you are working on.
  2. Filter to Not deployed to review unfinished drafts.
  3. Rename the draft you are keeping.
  4. Delete obvious duplicates or dead ends.
  5. Check Public projects separately to confirm only the right ones are visible and remixable.

This keeps the workspace easier to navigate without needing a big cleanup session later.
