Your public map, sharing and inviting

Your map is private until you decide otherwise. The Share button at the top of your map opens every way to show it.

The share menu

  • Public map: on or off. "Anyone with the link sees your whole map, Health included. Never your code, your security holes or who gets into each page."
  • Copy the public link.
  • Share on X and Share on LinkedIn.
  • The map's image: the plan of how your product runs, ready to post.
  • Invite someone.

If your map is private, copying the link or sharing it asks first: "To share it, your map becomes public: anyone with the link will see your whole map, Health included.", with Make it public and copy (or share) and Cancel. Nothing becomes public without you saying so.

If someone shared a map with you that's already public, you have Share too: copy its link and take it to X or LinkedIn. Turning it on or off, its image and inviting are its owner's.

What a visitor sees

A visitor of a public map sees your whole map, and each folder ends in «Made with SeeRepo»: every folder, Health, Journey and Pages included, with what's new in each, and can open each part's sheet. They see, they don't act: no prompts to copy and none of your invitations.

They never see your code, your security holes or who gets into each page. Pages leaves out who gets in and the states that tell whether a page asks to sign in, and outside it leaves out the pages opened by their link.

A public link always shows the project's default branch. If you turn the public map off, any saved link, to the root or a module, says the project has no public map.

Invite people

"They see the whole map and can't change anything. They sign in with their GitHub account."

  1. Click Invite someone, or a face under Made by in a part's sheet.
  2. The same dialog as your account's Settings → People opens, with this map already chosen. Check someone from People who work on your repos (this repo's come first), or type a GitHub username and press Add.
  3. You can add other maps, or All of them, also the ones you connect later, and Invite. Or press Create link: it's copied, and it works once, for 7 days.

If inviting from a face doesn't go through, the dialog opens with that person and tells you why: they don't exist on GitHub, they already see that map, or it's you.

An invitation is to the whole project: if it follows two branches, they see both.

Inviting has no cap on any plan. The dialog says how many people see your maps: "3 people see your maps".

In your account's Settings → People you see everyone who sees your maps, and change or remove each one. Maps someone shares with you show on your panel, below yours, under Shared with you.
