Find answers to common questions about using Kleap.

## General

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="What can I build with Kleap?">
    You can build a wide range of websites, including:

    * Landing and marketing pages
    * Business and local-service sites
    * Portfolios and personal sites
    * Blogs and content sites
    * Pricing and product pages
    * Simple web apps with logins and saved data (via Kleap Database)

    Kleap builds fast Astro 5 websites with Tailwind CSS v4 and interactive React islands. For dynamic features (accounts, saved data) add the built-in Kleap Database; for payments use Stripe payment links.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Do I need to know how to code?">
    No! Kleap is designed for everyone. Simply describe what you want in plain language, and the AI generates the code. However, if you do know code, you can view and edit the source files directly.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Who owns the code?">
    You do. 100%. Export to GitHub anytime, download the source files, or deploy anywhere you want. There's no lock-in.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="What technologies does Kleap use?">
    Sites are built with:

    * **Astro 5** - Fast static-site framework
    * **Tailwind CSS v4** - Utility-first styling
    * **React 19 islands** - Interactive components only where you need them
    * **TypeScript** - Type-safe JavaScript
    * **Kleap Database** (optional) - a built-in managed database with user accounts, where each user only sees their own data, added on demand
    * **Kleap Hosting** - a global edge network with automatic SSL
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

## Preview & Publishing

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="How does the live preview work?">
    The preview is a real build of your site, rendered right inside the Kleap editor. It refreshes automatically after each generation so you always see the current version — there's no separate preview URL to manage and nothing that "stops".
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="What's the difference between the preview and the production URL?">
    * **Preview**: A live build inside the editor, updated as you make changes. It lives in the editor, not at a separate URL.
    * **Production URL** (`your-app.kleap.io`): Your permanent, public URL after publishing. Always online on a global edge network.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="How do I share my site?">
    Publishing is automatic after each generation, so your site is already live at `your-app.kleap.io`. Just share that link — visitors don't need to log in. You can also re-publish anytime with the **Publish** button.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

## Billing & Credits

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="How do credits work?">
    Credits are usage-based, not a flat cost per message. A small text or style change costs a fraction of a credit, while a full page or complex feature costs more. Image generation and direct text editing are free. See [Plans & Credits](/introduction/plans-and-credits) for details.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="What happens when I run out of credits?">
    Your apps stay online and functional. You just can't make new AI changes until you get more credits (daily refresh, upgrade, or purchase).
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Can I get a refund?">
    Yes, within 7 days if you've used less than 20% of your credits. Contact [support@kleap.co](mailto:support@kleap.co).
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

## Apps & Deployment

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="How many apps can I create?">
    You can create unlimited apps in the editor. Published-app limits depend on your plan — see [kleap.co/pricing](https://kleap.co/pricing) for the current numbers.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Is deployment free?">
    Yes. Publishing is automatic after each generation and doesn't cost credits. Hosting on `your-app.kleap.io` — including SSL and delivery on a global edge network — is free with your Kleap account.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Can I use my own domain?">
    Yes. Point your domain's A record to Kleap (root domains use an A record, never a CNAME) and SSL is issued automatically. You can also buy a domain directly inside Kleap.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Can I export my app?">
    Absolutely. Push to GitHub with one click, or download the source files. Your code is yours.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

## Database & Forms

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Do I need to set up a database?">
    No setup required. When you ask for features that need data storage, Kleap adds its built-in **Kleap Database** (a managed database with built-in email/password user accounts, where each user only sees their own data) on demand. You don't connect or manage an external provider.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Is the database included in the price?">
    Yes — Kleap Database is built into the platform, with no separate third-party account or bill. Availability and limits depend on your plan; see [kleap.co/pricing](https://kleap.co/pricing).
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="How do forms work?">
    Forms are built in. Add a `KleapForm` and submissions show up in your dashboard with email notifications — no setup and no third-party service.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Can I access my data?">
    Yes. Your database and form submissions are managed inside Kleap — the AI creates and updates tables as your app needs them, and you can view form submissions from your dashboard.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

## Security

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Is my code secure?">
    Yes. Your code is stored securely and only accessible by you (and team members you invite). We don't share or sell your code.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Are my apps secure?">
    Apps follow security best practices by default. However, always review sensitive features and enable proper authentication for production apps.
  </Accordion>
