Deploy Your Theme

After installing the schema, you have two options for deploying your theme:

Option 1: Download and Install Manually

Download the theme source code and deploy it anywhere you want - your own server, VPS, or any hosting provider:

1. Go to your account and navigate to your purchased theme
2. Click the "Download" button to get the theme source code
3. Extract the ZIP file
4. Upload the files to your server or hosting provider
5. Install dependencies: pnpm install or npm install
6. Build the theme: pnpm build or npm run build
7. Start the production server: pnpm start or npm start

Option 2: Deploy to Vercel (One-Click Deploy)

The fastest way to get your theme live - deploy directly to Vercel with automatic configuration:

1. Go to your account and navigate to your purchased theme
2. Click the "Deploy to Vercel" button
3. Enter your Vercel API token (get it from Vercel Account Settings)
4. Optionally enter a project name (or leave empty for auto-generated name)
5. Click "Deploy"

Your theme will be deployed automatically! Environment variables (like DIRECTUS_URL) are automatically injected - you don't need to configure anything manually. Your site will be live in minutes with a Vercel URL.
