Currently there is no indication of progress after user uploads the site. They just need to wait for some time constantly refreshing the page. Which is a pretty bad UX.
There are two key stages to the build:
- Static site generation

For smaller sites first stages takes most of the time and second one is almost instantaneous, for site with large number of pages it's reversed - most of the time would be spent in the second stage (https://answers.netlify.com/t/deployment-takes-a-really-long-time-1-5h-to-process-mostly-stuck-in-unpacking-archive/31782/2)
Plan for the first iteration of build notifications:
- Notify user when all processing is done and site is live
- Notify user on completion of build stage & if there were any errors
