The Public URL
All SourceLair project types (except for Generic), provide projects with an Public URL, mapped to their web server, in order to be able to view the application you are building and share your progress with anyone you wish.
All Public URLs are in the form of randomprojectid.apps.lair.io
.
Security
All Public URLs in SourceLair are HTTPS-enabled by default. You are free to use and share your Public URL in any protocol you wish though (HTTPS or HTTP). Both of them will work at any time.
