Sharing demos
How to share an HTML demo with a public link
Local HTML files are hard to review. A public demo link lets teammates, clients, or hiring managers open the page without downloading a ZIP or installing anything.
When a demo link beats a file attachment
Sending index.html in email or chat often breaks relative CSS and image paths. Reviewers also cannot open folders cleanly on phones.
A hosted preview keeps the folder structure, works in any browser, and can be updated later without changing the share URL.
- Client review of a campaign page
- Portfolio or homework submission
- Design-to-HTML prototype walkthrough
- Quick QA before a formal deploy
Publish a review-ready demo
Upload the folder, single HTML file, or ZIP on HTML To Link. Confirm the entry file, publish, and copy the public URL into your message.
If feedback requires changes, update the same deployment so reviewers keep using the original link.
Choose temporary vs managed links
Guest links are useful for short-lived previews. Sign in when you need longer retention, renewals, or an account-level page list.
For AI-built demos, combine this flow with the agent deploy guide so the coding tool returns the share URL automatically.
FAQ
Can reviewers open the demo on mobile?
Yes. The published page is a normal public URL, so any modern browser can open it without installing extra software.
Will CSS and images still work?
Yes when you upload a folder or ZIP that preserves relative paths. Single-file demos should inline or host assets carefully.
Can I keep the same link after edits?
Yes. Updating an existing deployment keeps the share URL stable while refreshing the page content.
