Building and exporting your configurator

You can export and launch your project as an application for any of these platforms:

• Windows
• Linux
• Mac
• iOS

To make it easier for multiple people to collaborate on a product at the same time, you can also export only Addressable Assets.

Previewing your project

To preview your project, select the Game tab and use the Play button.

To exit Play mode, use the Stop button.

Building and exporting your project

To export your project, you must define an build setup profile that specifies the operating system your application will run on and the parts of your project that you want to export.

By default, Forma includes a build profile that will export your entire application to run on a Windows operating system.

To export your application to a different operating system, or to only export the product, you must create a new build setup profile.

To create a new build setup profile, follow these steps:

1. In the Forma tab, select the Exports tab.
   

   

2. Select the New Profile button.

   

3. In the Profile Name box, enter a name for the new build setup profile.

4. In the Build Type menu, do one of the following:

   • To export the entire project, including Variant Sets, select Everything.
   • To only export Addressable Assets, select Product Only.

5. In the Target menu, select an operating system for this profile.

Under the properties for the profile, select Export.

1. Select a location and a name for the executable file, then Save.

   The system starts building the application. When the export is complete, you can launch the application.

   Note: It can take several minutes to build larger projects.

2. To execute the application, select the Launch button.
