Deleting a project removes it from your dashboard permanently -- build history, analytics, and domain config are all gone. Your GitHub repository is not affected.

## Deleting a Project You Own

<Warning>
Deleting a project permanently removes all data including build history, analytics, and custom domain configuration. This cannot be undone.
</Warning>

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open project settings">
    Go to your project and click **Settings**.
  </Step>
  <Step title="Scroll to Danger Zone">
    Find the **Danger Zone** section at the bottom.
  </Step>
  <Step title="Click Delete Project">
    Select **Delete Project**.
  </Step>
  <Step title="Confirm deletion">
    Type the project name to confirm, then click **Permanently Delete**.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## What Gets Deleted

- All build history and logs
- Analytics data
- Custom domain configuration
- Team member associations
- Webhook integrations

## What's NOT Deleted

- Your GitHub repository (remains unchanged)
- Your Jamdesk account
- Other projects you own

## Leaving a Project

If you're a member (not owner) of a project:

1. Go to **Settings** → **Team**
2. Find your name in the member list
3. Click **Leave Project**
4. Confirm your departure

You can be re-invited later if needed.

## Before Deleting

Consider these alternatives:

- **Transfer ownership** if team members need continued access
- **Export analytics** data if you need historical records
- **Note your configuration** if you might recreate the project

## Recovering Deleted Projects

Deleted projects cannot be recovered. If you accidentally deleted a project:

1. Create a new project
2. Connect the same GitHub repository
3. Reconfigure settings manually

Your documentation content remains in your GitHub repository.
