Publishing Your Site
Publishing is how you take the site you've built with Kite and make it live on the internet. Until you publish, your work only exists in the editor.
When you publish, Kite deploys your latest changes and gives you a free <name>.kite.space web address that anyone can visit. Publishing is also a prerequisite for connecting your own custom domain.
tip
You can publish as many times as you like. Each publish pushes your most recent edits live, so it's normal to publish often as you refine your site.
