# What is Publish?

For a local HTTP app, qurl publish starts the embedded connector and returns the resource’s CRID when the route is ready. The daemon runs in the background; the app and host must stay running.

A remote HTTPS URL can also be published, but its original public route is unchanged.

## How LayerV Implements This

For the local CLI workflow, keep the app on loopback on the publishing host. Use qurl stop <CRID> to pause local serving, qurl start <CRID> to resume, and qurl delete <CRID> to retire the resource.
