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.
