This is the smallest useful path from nothing to a W7S deploy.

You will create a tiny site, put it in GitHub, and let GitHub Actions deploy it.

You do not need to become a Git expert before deploying to W7S.

You do need one basic idea: GitHub should become the home of the project, not just a place you visit after the project is finished.

Once the project is in GitHub, W7S can deploy it from GitHub Actions.

Netlify Drop is one of the lowest-friction ways to put a static project online. Drop a folder, zip file, or single HTML file into the browser, and Netlify gives you a shareable URL.

That is useful, especially for prototypes and projects exported from AI coding tools.

The problem shows up on the second deploy.

Drag and drop is great for "look at this." GitHub first is better for "this is the project."

Putting the project into GitHub before deploying to W7S adds one step, but that step buys history, repeatability, collaboration, and a deploy workflow that can grow with the app.
