Export Code

On paid plans, download your complete project as a ZIP and host it anywhere. Code, assets, a content database dump and a setup README are included.

Looops generates real code that you own. On Personal and Pro you can export the whole project at any time and host it anywhere.

How to export

  • In the builder: click the project name (top left) → Export code
  • In the dashboard: open a project card's menu → Download Code

Looops packages the project on its servers and gives you a download link that is valid for a short time. On the free plan the same buttons show the upgrade options.

What's in the ZIP

  • The full source: a Next.js project with your pages, components and styles (React 19, Next.js 16, Tailwind CSS 4, TypeScript)
  • Every asset you uploaded or generated
  • A dump of your content database, if your site has one
  • A README that lists the environment variables your site expects (the names only, never the secret values) so a developer can set them up elsewhere

Looops' own preview tooling is left out; you get a standard project.

Hosting it yourself

A standard Next.js project runs on any host that supports it. The two common paths:

Static hosting. Sites without a database can build to plain files (next build with static output) and be served from any static host or CDN.

A Node.js or serverless host. Sites with a database, forms that store entries or member logins need a server side. Vercel, Netlify, Cloudflare and any Node host work. Point the environment variables from the README at your own services.

npm install
npm run build
npm start

After export

You can edit the code in any editor and add anything you like. Changes made outside Looops cannot be synced back: your Looops project keeps building from its own copy. Most people keep building in Looops and export as a backup or for a developer handoff.

Next steps

  • Custom Domains: if you would rather keep hosting with Looops on your own domain
  • Project Transfer: hand the whole project to a client inside Looops instead
