+.SYNOPSIS
+ Publish the app and mirror the output to an FTP-deployed IIS site.
+
+.DESCRIPTION
+ - Builds with dotnet publish.
+ - Drops app_offline.htm to pause the IIS site while files upload.
+ - Uses WinSCP (ftp) to mirror publish output into $RemoteDir (deletes extraneous remote files).
+ - Removes app_offline.htm when done.
+
+.PREREQS
+ - WinSCP.com available in PATH or pass -WinScpPath "C:\Path\To\WinSCP.com".
+ - FTP user must have write/delete rights to $RemoteDir.
+ - If you have RDP, you can still run this locally; the app_offline flag safely stops the app without touching the pool.
+
+.EXAMPLE
+ pwsh ./scripts/deploy-ftp.ps1 `
+ -FtpHost "ftp.example.com" `
+ -FtpUser "deploy" `
+ -FtpPassword (Get-Content ./secrets/ftp.pwd -Raw) `
+ -RemoteDir "/httpdocs" `
