I found that AI tools are generating excellent HTML documents nowadays, yet there's no easy way to show them to others. Yes, there's GitHub pages - but I don't know if it is user-friendly for non-technical people. This app allows you to keep your HTML file in your Google Drive and serve it from there. Feedback is most welcome.

Question, why is this answer sound like it's given by a stereotypical Turkish bazaar shopowner?

Is this free?
HTML Drive is completely free for up to 10 published pages

So what if I want to publish 11 pages?

Then it’s no longer _completely_ free

Hey I just launched this, I will have to put some limit to the free tier. Does 10 seem too less? Let me raise it to 100

  You can request deletion of your Google user data by emailing the official support channel. [1]

It always worries me when you need to email support just to delete your own data.

I'm logged in with my Google account over a secure connection and yet I can only delete over insecure email.

Not that it really matters when there's no support email address anyway.

  For privacy-related questions, please contact the application operator through the official support channels listed by your team. [1]

Waiting for the apology Google gives for not having deleted all user data when asked to do so. An intern made a mistake, Gemini did it, "we're only following government order", a technical problem, anything.

You don’t need to serve raw html, you can just open it in a hypertext markup language viewer (I.e a browser). Just send people the index.html

Just email everyone the latest version whenever you make changes! /s

I was doing that and got tired of doing it :-)

Unconfirmed but I seem to recollect that this violates their Terms of Service. Or was it Dropbox; something like that.

Since LLM can create the pages for non-techical people, it for sure can also help publishing the page

I wish Drive better supported editing and sharing html and text files, but a better option is probably to use custom urls in AI Studio https://x.com/GoogleAIStudio/status/2075595994327077095

Same here. I built HTML Drive because Google never made it. I want to keep this easy to use. I don’t know how easy AI Studio will be for non-technical people
