 An RO-Crate can be distributed on disk, in packaged format such as a zip file or disk image, or placed on a static website. In any of these cases, an RO-Crate should have an accompanying HTML version (`ro-crate-preview.html`) designed to be human-readable. The exact contents of the preview may vary but should correspond to the _RO-Crate Metadata Document_ content and link to the contained data entities. The preview may be generated automatically from the _RO-Crate Metadata Document_ (see [RO-Crate tools](../../tools)), or even by hand (equivalent to a README).
