Turn any project into a direct link to external websites, apps, or live demos.

Link to external destinations

Sometimes you want a project card to link directly to a live website, app store, or external resource instead of opening a detail page. The link field makes this easy.

How to use external links

Add a link: field to your project's frontmatter followed by the full URL you want to link to, for example https://example.com.

title: "My Live Website"
description: "Check out my latest web application"

When visitors click this project from your homepage, they go directly to the external URL instead of a project detail page.

Visual indicator

Projects with external links show a 🔗 icon so visitors know they'll be leaving your site.
