You know when you’ve finished building your website and just want to get it online without dealing with all the techy stuff? That’s where deployment platforms help. They make it super easy to put your site live, just connect your code, click a button, and it’s up and running. No need to worry about servers or complicated setups.
They also take care of the important things like speed, security, and updates in the background. So while they handle the heavy stuff, you can focus on making your website look good and work great. It's simple, right?
