How to add hard-coded website to square space? (beehaw.org)

I have a couple sites on Google and since they sold to square space I thought I'd try to keep my stuff there. But I can't figure it out. Square space is a site builder with a GUI and I can't find anywhere to just deploy my site to them as a react app. I have found a few areas where I can add some code, but they are for specific areas of the provided templates. I've even tried to use developer mode, but it looks like you still need to follow their template rules to get anywhere.

It's been a huge headache, Google made it so easy.

Yeah, I mean if it's a static website unless it's using a generator, the source is accessible by just visiting the website. So having it public shouldn't matter too much, right? Even if it's using a generator, it's not like what you are writing is secret. That said I use GitLab and Hugo on a private repo. I have no reason to make it public and all the highly experienced web developers told me it simply doesn't need to be public so why make it public?

Good point! I rarely use plain static pages, there’s usually some templating involved if I’m going through GH pages.
