One underrated feature of Squarespace:
You can redesign an entire site without touching the live one.
I often rebuild sites behind the scenes, then swap them when everything is ready.
Zero downtime. No broken pages.
(And no one sees the half-finished redesign.) 😍
Curious how other designers handle redesigns. Do you rebuild behind the scenes or update the live site as you go?

Side Pocket, behind the site.
This is the Figma file for my Lovable Challenge entry:
Every page at five breakpoints, from 1920 down to 390
Components with default and hover states
One set of text and color styles for the whole site
Home, menu, booking and the staff screens all live in one file. Changes get planned in the design first, then go to code.
