Upload a website (ZIP or HTML)

How to zip a site so it works the first time.

One HTML file

If everything is inside one .html file, upload it as it is. It becomes the front page of your link.

A folder with several files

  1. Open the folder that contains index.html.
  2. Select everything inside it (not the folder itself).
  3. Compress the selection: on Mac, right-click → Compress; on Windows, right-click → Compress to ZIP file or Send to → Compressed (zipped) folder.
  4. Upload that ZIP.

Every file keeps its path, so about.html opens at your-name.droply.page/about.html.

React, Vue, Vite, Astro and similar

Run your build (often npm run build) and zip the output folder, usually dist, build or out. Uploading the source code gives a blank page. With Vite, set base: "./" so asset paths are relative.

Want to check a ZIP before uploading? The free ZIP Inspector lists its contents without uploading anything.
