I’m ok with the technology of getting Observable working, but what about the licensing ?

Can I create a public-facing notebook and embed that on my website for free?  
On the Pro plan, what exactly is a “workspace viewer” ?

Is there somewhere to read about this? (the pricing area on the website feels very light on information)

workspace viewer is for extra people in your group accessing your shared notebooks that are not public.

Public embeds are free [Embeds | Observable documentation](https://observablehq.com/documentation/embeds/)

Thanks for replying 🙂 That’s what I was assuming but I just couldn’t find the documentation anywhere to say that 🙂
