Export your site files

Download HTML or Next.js files and understand what is included in an export.

Overview

Exports let you take a copy of generated site files outside BaseStack. The exact files depend on the generation mode and your plan.

What exports are useful for

Key points

  • Keeping a backup of a finished site.
  • Handing the site to a developer for deeper customization.
  • Inspecting generated HTML and assets.
  • Starting a separate deployment workflow.

Before exporting

Steps

  • Save the latest draft.
  • Preview the site and replace obvious placeholder media or links.
  • Check that public links and contact paths are correct.
  • Export from the editor once the draft matches the version you want to keep.

Exports do not replace publishing

Downloading files gives you a local copy. Publishing controls the live BaseStack public page.
