# Exporting your project

So once you're done working on your project, what are you going to do with it? Try opening the **Export Menu**.

You'll see an input box to name your file (where `index.html` is pictured). Directly below it, we've gathered a list of actions you should take before exporting your project.  Of course it's a good idea to read through our recommendations (and completely ignore them), but just for laughs, how about we take a look?

### Pre-export Options

> **Configure your project -** This is an optional step in the project creation process, but an important one nonetheless. We'll cover that later, but for now, it's a good idea to fully configure your project before the world sees it. We've placed it here in the **Export Menu** as a reminder, and for easy access.

> **View your compiled code -** Shrubbery aside, transparency is important to us, and helpful to you. This option allows you to see exactly how nuken has compiled your project's input - nothing hidden, no filters in place. Just raw plaintext. That way, you can catch any errors on your part (or even our part) before you go to export. Happy?

> **Open the Share Menu -** Looking for the **Share Menu**? Well, it's not here. This is the **Export Menu,** genius. 🤦‍ Try again! (Jokes aside, we'll cover what you can do there later.)

Once you're done giving your project a file name, and you're fairly confident it's time to move on, click "**Export my project**". You'll see a system dialog box open, allowing you to save your completed project file wherever you so please.&#x20;

And just like that, it's over! You've done it. Give yourself a pat on the back. Your creative journey has just begun...
