Note: Kavia will periodically ask for your approval before proceeding with major updates. Make sure to read the messages carefully and reply naturally in the chat to move the project forward.
Step 5 - Preview
At the top of the right panel, you will see two main views: Code and Preview. In the Code view, you can explore all the project files through an integrated code editor. In the Preview view, you can see a live visual representation of your website or application as it is being developed. This makes it easy to track changes and understand the progress visually.
Step 6 - Deploy
After finalizing your project, you can deploy it by clicking the "+" icon located next to the Deploy button at the top right. Adjust your deployment settings as needed, such as naming your app and configuring environments, and then click Create New App to make your project live.
