How do I deploy a web project to Netlify using the CLI?

To deploy a web project to Netlify, the CLI automates authentication, site linking, and dependency installation to push both preview and production builds directly from your Git repository or local directory.

Can I create draft previews for my Netlify deployment before going to production?

Yes, you can generate draft previews for your Netlify deployment. The workflow supports separate preview and production builds, allowing you to test changes before releasing them to production.
