```bash
beeuni apps list
beeuni apps show main
beeuni apps connect main
beeuni apps launch --template convex --slug main
beeuni apps deploy dist --type static --spa
beeuni apps machines main
beeuni apps volumes main
```

Back up important data. Restoring a volume snapshot discards later changes. Deleting a volume permanently removes its data.
