My main use case for Netlify Platform is that it is easy to deploy the website without changing the code and pushing it manually by myself. Whenever I make any changes to my portfolio website, for example, if I complete any new certification or anything which I need to add to my profile, I just change the code in my local desktop and push it back to GitHub. Through GitHub, Netlify Platform picks up the updated code and it reflects back the new changes, so that made it easy with Netlify Platform cloud environment. I have a lot to add about my main use case and how I use Netlify Platform in my workflow because it is also easy for me to use multiple options over there. For example, I sometimes use Netlify Platform CLI and sometimes I do it myself on my local desktop and push it to GitHub, but there are pretty much options in Netlify Platform. There is also a lot of documentation present in the platform where I can refer to and make changes if I need to in some other or different ways.
My main use case for Netlify Platform is deploying my local website to a hosted platform where I can share the link with multiple people so that they can easily access and use that particular website, which can be built in any language, irrespective of the language being used. I use it for deployments of both back-end and front-end services. It is easy and fast to deploy websites and website applications.

My biggest use case for Netlify Platform is to deploy my front-end website and create a CI/CD pipeline with GitHub itself. For example, I built my college project, a lost and found website. I created the UI in React, made the repository in GitHub, created a CI/CD pipeline to Netlify Platform, and hosted my project there. I have hosted several other projects as well. I also hosted a UI for a platform as a service I was building for my personal project, which is a video platform where you can have video calls. For that as well, I used Netlify Platform.
I last used Netlify Platform in March 2022 for hosting web services on the platform. My main use case was to create a full stack application for workforce management and banking services, using Netlify Platform as a third-party integration through GitHub to host these services to clients and customers. I was part of a team of ten software engineers building a full stack application for workforce management and banking services. The company was based in Detroit, Michigan, with operations for an African company based in Nigeria. We had to provide banking services to the customer base across all of Africa. We developed a full stack application providing banking services including credit and debit card functionality, online banking, and a separate application for growing and managing the workforce. All of this was developed using React JS on the front-end and Python on the back-end. We successfully connected GitHub third-party integration with Netlify Platform to host our services in Africa and successfully connected with clients and customers across all of Africa.
My main use case for Netlify Platform is mostly for the deployment of websites and domain exchanges from Cloudflare or any host platform. A quick, specific example of a project I've deployed using Netlify Platform is a recent project where the backend was deployed in an AWS instance and I had to add the subdomain for that particular website. I routed the DNS from Cloudflare and since I bought the domain from Namecheap, I routed the DNS and deployed in the same way through Netlify. I use Netlify Platform mostly for my side projects and personal use, so I utilize it for deployment and related services.
My main use case for Netlify Web Development Cloud is deploying my applications, such as deploying my personal applications so that everyone can access my made application through a link. I use Netlify Web Development Cloud for academic web development projects, personal learning and practice projects, React-based front-end applications, static websites for demonstrations, and portfolio purposes, with these applications hosted publicly for easy access by faculty, peers, and reviewers without any local setup.
