What happens to the application overlay once a revision is deployed?

When a revision is deployed, the application overlay remains in the sandbox for further modifications. This is significant because it allows developers and consultants the flexibility to continue developing and adjusting the overlay after a deployment. The sandbox serves as a safe environment where additional changes can be tested without impacting the production environment.

This capacity for ongoing modification means that any enhancements or tweaks needed after deployment can be made without having to start from scratch or lose previous work. Hence, maintaining the application overlay in this manner ensures that the development process is iterative and adaptable, improving overall efficiency and usability as feedback is gathered post-deployment.

Other potential outcomes, such as permanent deletion or merging with the base application, do not accurately reflect the purpose of the overlay in a deployment context. Moreover, archiving the overlay does not align with the idea of ongoing development and adjustments; it implies a cessation of activity which is contrary to the intent of maintaining a flexible development process.
