Once you've created a new website on Ucraft, the system will automatically generate a free Ucraft subdomain like mysite.ucraft.site that will be available to the public right away.
To access your website's edit mode and start making changes, you need to add a /design at the end of your site's URL: mysite.ucraft.site/design.
