Dummy question from a non-front-end dev: What is the simplest way to host this project as it is on the web? (as a static page, no additional functionality)

Try out Netlify, their developer experience is excellent and the platform can grow with you if you need more features beyond the free tier.

Hey, We export standard HTML/CSS files (or JS / JSX for Material-UI libraries). You can publish them via Netlify (as mentioned above) or any other hosting for static pages. You can check examples of exported sources here: https://shuffle.dev/static/files/example.zip https://shuffle.dev/static/files/example.zip (the link is also available in our editor when exporting a project)

I’ve been self-hosting websites for years on a VPS but as I have been using Cloudflare for DNS management and for their CDN features, I made the jump over to Cloudflare Pages a few days ago. Cloudflare Pages was trivially easy to set up, complete with GitHub integration and I can heartily recommend it. https://pages.cloudflare.com/ https://pages.cloudflare.com/ The sites I’m hosting are plain old static sites. I have a separate private repository for each site on GitHub, with all of the html files and the few images and such that the sites have, just as I always had, but now when I push commits to these repos they are automatically pulled and deployed by Cloudflare Pages and basically all I had to do was to enable GitHub integration, choose the repository, tell Cloudflare how to “build” it, which because everything is static the “build” command in my case is simply: cp -R htdocs dist With htdocs just being a directory of static content inside of any of my website repositories for the site in question, to keep the content I want to serve separate from things like the README.md and other files that I also have in each repo. Then I told Cloudflare Pages that the “build” output is in the “dist” directory. It’s great!
