Built a website in Cursor? Publish it without DevOps

Built a site in Cursor? Upload its static output and get a live link — no Git, no command line, no deployment setup.

Upload my website

To publish a website you built in Cursor, export it to plain static files, then upload that output folder (or a ZIP of it) to Just Publish for a live link — no Git, no terminal, no deploy pipeline. If your project is already plain HTML/CSS/JS, you can upload it as-is.

If it's a React, Vite, or Next.js project, it needs to be built into static files first. Ask Cursor to run the static build and point you at the output folder — then upload that. The prompt below tells Cursor exactly what to produce.

Send this to Cursor · tool: Cursor 
Please prepare a static version of this project for publishing on Just Publish.
Produce plain static files and a ZIP that contains:
 - index.html at the root
 - the compiled CSS and JavaScript
 - all images and assets, with relative paths
 - no server, API routes, or build step needed to view it
If this is a React/Vite/Next.js project, run the static export/build and zip the output folder (for example dist/ or out/). Tell me which folder to upload.

How it works

  1. 1 Upload your websiteDrop in the ZIP or folder your AI tool created — or paste your code. No setup, nothing to install.
  2. 2 We check itWe look for your homepage and make sure the website is ready. If something's missing, we give you a message to send back to your AI.
  3. 3 Get your live linkYour website goes online right away. Open it, copy the link to share, and connect your own domain whenever you like.

Questions

Can I publish a Cursor project without GitHub?

Yes. You don't need Git or GitHub. Export your project to static files and upload the folder or a ZIP here — that's the whole process.

What folder should I upload?

The static output folder — the one with index.html and the built CSS/JS and assets. For Vite that's usually dist/, for Next.js static export it's out/.

What if my project uses React?

React works as long as it's built to static files that run in the browser. Run the build first and upload the output folder; the prompt above asks Cursor to do this.

What if my site needs a backend?

A static host can't run server code, databases, or API routes. The page will load, but server-powered features won't work — those need a different kind of hosting.

Can I use a custom domain?

Yes. Publish first for your free link, then connect a custom domain with Builder — our $9/month plan, launching soon (join the waitlist on the pricing page).
