Let's now discover how to package using the RELOAD Editor.

AND IF I NEED TO MAKE CHANGES?

Apart from the zipped file, the original folder: LO1 is still present on your computer and now it contains the Manifest and the other files generated by Reload Editor.

If you need to make any changes to your web page or to an image, it is not necessary to repeat the whole procedure. After making the necessary changes, open the Manifest file again and only repeat the zipping procedure.
