    What it does

    Netlify publishes web projects from Git and provides deploy previews for reviewing changes. It also offers server-side capabilities when a site needs more than static files.

    When to use it

    You want to publish a web project and review each change at a shareable preview URL.

    What you need: A Netlify account, a repository, and the project's build and publish-directory settings.

    Try a small build

    A suggested exercise to help you evaluate the resource.

    1. Connect a small site repository. Confirm the build command and publish directory instead of guessing them.
    2. Open the deployed site and check its images, links, and direct navigation to an inner page.
    3. Open a pull request with one visible change and compare its deploy preview with production.

    You should end up with: A published site with a separate place to review upcoming changes.

    Keep in mind

    Routing rules, environment variables, and server functions need their own configuration. Check current plan limits for your project.
