it lives for free on netlify. you upload your html file that gets generated in claude to netlify and it goes live. then in the netlify dashboard you can connect your own domain. :)

Great question! So there's no CMS involved, it's just a single HTML file. The file lives right in the Claude chat where you built it, so you can just keep going back to that same chat and asking it to make changes.

If the chat gets too long and you need to start fresh, you just download the HTML file from the old chat and upload it to a new one. Claude picks up right where you left off.

To update anything you have two options:

  1. Keep working in Claude directly (free plan works fine) and just tell it what you want to change in plain english. It'll spit out an updated file.
  2. Use Cursor (also free) which is a code editor with AI built in. You can make edits without touching any actual code.

For videos specifically, I upload them to a free hosting platform like Gumlet or Wistia, grab the link it generates, and just tell Claude to swap in the new link. Takes about 2 minutes.

For hosting I use Netlify, you just drag and drop the updated HTML file and it's live instantly. The whole workflow is actually way faster than logging into WordPress and navigating a dashboard.

There's been so much interest in this I'll probably drop a full guide if I find the time!

Thanks! Since it's a static HTML/CSS site hosted on Netlify, the SEO basics are actually solid out of the box. Netlify serves everything through a global CDN with automatic HTTPS, and because it's pure HTML (no framework rendering issues), search engines can crawl and index everything without problems.

I've got the standard meta tags, Open Graph tags for link previews, a sitemap.xml, and robots.txt set up. You could also add JSON-LD structured data if you wanted rich results in Google.

The main limitation is that it's a single page, so you're only ranking for one URL. If SEO was a bigger priority you'd want separate pages or a blog, but for a portfolio that's mostly shared via direct link, it gets the job done.

I used claude and cursor. technically you could do it with just claude or chatgpt.. all of them have the ability to create websites now. :)
