Package and share an app

Packaging puts a finished app and the files it needs into a distributable layout. Publishing a package instead shares its Dream source for use by other projects.

Start with your own computer

Run these commands from a runnable project:

dreamer run --release
dreamer pack

dreamer pack creates CLI output under target/pack/. It does not upload your app. See Packaging options and troubleshooting before building for another computer.

For reusable source packages, use Publishing.
