Project Visibility

Control who can see your project and its records.

Public Projects

When a project is public, anyone can view it at /log/username/project-slug. This is great for building in public and sharing your journey.

Public projects show all records marked as public on the public timeline.

Private Projects

Private projects are only visible to you. Use this for internal projects, experiments, or anything you want to keep personal.

Default Record Visibility

Each project has a "Default record visibility" setting that controls whether new records are public or private by default.

  • Private (default) - New records start as private
  • Public - New records start as public

You can always change individual record visibility when creating or editing.

Editing Projects

To edit a project, go to your project page and click the "Edit" button in the project header. You can update any of the fields mentioned above.

Note: Changing the project slug will update the URL. Old links will no longer work after changing the slug.

Viewing Your Projects

Access all your projects from the Projects page. Projects are sorted by most recently updated.

Each project card shows the name, description, visibility status, and when it was last updated.
