This walkthrough follows a real site, Northwind Coffee Roasters, a demo coffee shop in Hiveku. Every picture comes from that site, so you can follow along on your own site step by step. In this series you will:
  1. Open your site in the builder (this page).
  2. Make a change by chatting with the AI.
  3. Edit text and styles by clicking on the page.
  4. Add a new page.
  5. Check your site on a phone and a tablet.
  6. Undo a change.
  7. Publish your changes so visitors see them.
Nothing you do in the builder reaches your live site until you publish. You can try things freely: the steps on Undo a Change take any of them back.
