What Showcaser does today, one line each. Every line links to the manual for the detail.

## A calm site that's yours

Real pages, fast on every phone, at your name or your own domain.

- **[Your own address](/docs/your-address)**: Start at yourname.showcaser.app; change it any time.
- **[Your own domain](/docs/own-domain)**: Point a domain you own at your showcase; the app shows what to change and checks it works.
- **[Real pages, found by search](/docs/what-visitors-see)**: Every page is rendered on the server, with a sitemap and structured data for search.
- **[Search in the visitor's browser](/docs/search-on-the-site)**: Search and category buttons run in the visitor's browser; nothing is sent anywhere.
- **[Contact is links, not forms](/docs/site-details)**: Call, text, email and a map, straight from the page. Nothing a visitor types is stored.
- **[Pages for everything else](/docs/pages)**: Add tabs like Sell, Consignment or About: a title, a few paragraphs, photos if you like.
- **[A header photo](/docs/header-photo)**: One wide photo across the top of every page, under your name.

## Layouts, themes and type

A few layouts made with care; colours and type you pick. Every showcase stays good-looking.

- **[Cards or Gallery](/docs/layouts)**: Cards for things with a price under them; Gallery for pictures whole, hung on a wall.
- **[Themes, or your own](/docs/themes)**: Pick a shared theme or make your own from a few colors; contrast is always kept.
- **[Fonts from your own site](/docs/fonts)**: Curated faces served from your own site, never a font service, so nobody else watches.
- **[The app wears your site](/docs/themes)**: The back office is drawn in the colours your site is published in, on every device.

## Listings

Photos first, then the few fields that matter, then publish.

- **[Photos and video](/docs/photos-and-video)**: Photos are resized and their location removed on your device; video plays everywhere.
- **[The cover and the order](/docs/photos-and-video)**: Drag to reorder, on the Mac, iPad or iPhone; the first is the cover.
- **[Statuses that mean something](/docs/statuses)**: Available, Pending, Sold, Hidden or your own; each on the site or not, marked or not.
- **[A private note on a status](/docs/statuses)**: “Dave, back Oct 20”: only in the app, sealed before it leaves the device.
- **[Real sizes](/docs/dimensions)**: Width, height and depth in inches or centimeters, checked against the photo.
- **[View on your wall](/docs/dimensions)**: In the Gallery, a piece with real dimensions opens in AR at its size on iPhone and iPad.
- **[Words, gently](/docs/details-summary-description)**: Descriptions take bold, italics, headings, lists and links: enough to give them shape.

## Fields that suit what you show

Start from Vehicles, Artwork, Tools or General; rename, hide and add fields from a few plain types.

- **[Built-in schemas](/docs/listing-schema)**: Vehicles, Artwork, Tools and General; the first edit makes one your own.
- **[A few plain types](/docs/fields-and-types)**: Text, number, money, year, date, choice, dimensions and markdown. Nothing required.
- **[Fields only you can read](/docs/only-in-this-app)**: A cost price or a note, sealed with the showcase's key: not on the site, unreadable to us.
- **[Headline, search and the price sort](/docs/headline-search-empty)**: Choose which fields make the title and which are searched; visitors sort by price.
- **[Change it without losing anything](/docs/removing-fields-and-statuses)**: Switching or removing a field says what happens first; values can be kept and come back.

## iPhone, iPad and Mac

No web admin. Everything happens in the app, on whichever device is in your hand.

- **[One purchase, every device](/docs/what-showcaser-is)**: The same app on iPhone, iPad and Mac, and your showcases on each.
- **[Two devices, one showcase](/docs/two-devices)**: Edit on the iPad while the iPhone is in your pocket; nobody saves over a change unseen.
- **[Drag photos in on the Mac](/docs/drag-and-drop)**: From the Finder or Photos onto a listing, or onto the list to start a new one.
- **[Side by side, or in a window](/docs/cards-and-windows)**: Command-click to put a listing beside the list, or open any card in a window of its own.
- **[Keyboard shortcuts](/docs/keyboard-shortcuts)**: New listing, publish, refresh and every status, from the keyboard.
- **[Several showcases](/docs/several-showcases)**: Your own and a client's, each with its own key, site and listings; switch at the top.

## Yours, and private

No account, no password, nothing about visitors.

- **[No account, no password](/docs/the-key)**: Your showcase is a key in your iCloud Keychain, on every device you own.
- **[A recovery key](/docs/the-key)**: Print it, save it in a password manager, or show it as a QR code for another device.
- **[Nothing about visitors](/docs/what-is-stored)**: No tracking, no view counts, no analytics, no forms: visitors leave nothing behind.
- **[Honest pictures](/docs/honest-pictures)**: Never generated, never enhanced: the photo you took, resized and nothing else.
