I updated my html code for my site. How do I see the update on my actual website and not just the preview?

I'm doing the front end web development track. I created my first webpage and then bought a domain name and uploaded it to a web hosting server. Now when I update my code in workspaces, how do I see the changes on the actual site and not just the preview in workspaces?

When you have it how you want. You need to do file download I believe. You can download the workspace. Which is all the code in a zip file. Then you unzip it and copy all the contents and push it up to your hosting provider. There is a great tutorial on this if you go to the creating a website track. Then watch the last module. It's only 3 videos. It will show you how to take your workspace code, download it and push it to your provider.

Are you working in workspaces on teamtreehouse? Ok here is what I assume by your question. You built a website and have a domain name. I take it your bought some web hosting as well? WorkSpaces are not connected to your actual web page. To get your actual web page to to change. You need to make those changes and upload them to your website.

Very confused here about what you are trying to do. Can you please elaborate?

Yeah I'm working in workspaces on teamtreehouse. In doing the front end web development track, I designed a webpage using html and css. Then I bought a domain name and some web hosting so that the site I created would be up on the web. I've been messing around and adding things to my code in workspaces just for practice purposes. How do I make changes and upload them to my actual website?
