How do I deploy a Cursor-built HTML app without a server?

Drop the HTML file on ShipLock. You get a live URL in under 30 seconds with no server setup, no git push, and no CI/CD pipeline. ShipLock handles hosting, data, and access control automatically.

What is the fastest way to share a Cursor prototype?

Deploy to ShipLock. Drop the HTML file, set access to link-only, and share the URL. Anyone with the link can view it — no accounts, no downloads, no screen sharing required.

Can I add a backend to a Cursor-generated HTML file?

ShipLock injects a built-in JSON data store (window.SL) into every app. You can use this as a lightweight backend for form submissions, app state, and user data — without writing any server code.

Why ShipLock

The missing piece for
AI-built micro-apps

Cursor is built for engineers who want a full-stack setup. But sometimes you just want to share a single HTML file — and Vercel, Netlify, or a server is overkill.

⚡

30-second deploy

No git, no build pipeline, no YAML. Drop a file, get a URL. Works on any device.

🗄️

Built-in data store

Every app gets a JSON data store automatically. Read and write via window.SL — no backend needed.

🔐

Access control

Private, link-only, group invite, or public. Change the policy any time. No re-deploy needed.

🔁

Easy updates

Iterate in Cursor, re-deploy the new file. The URL stays the same. Version history keeps old builds.

📱

Mobile install prompt

ShipLock automatically shows an "Add to Home Screen" prompt on mobile — your app, installed like a native app.

FAQ

Common questions

Does my app need to do anything special to work on ShipLock?

No. Any HTML file works. ShipLock wraps it with a shell that handles auth, access control, and data injection. To use the data store, apps access window.SL.api — but that's optional.

Is this for single-file apps only?

Yes. ShipLock is purpose-built for self-contained HTML apps — a single file with inline CSS and JavaScript. Multi-file React or Next.js projects belong on Vercel. Single-file AI-built apps belong on ShipLock.

How do I share a Cursor app with my team?

Deploy to ShipLock with group access, then invite team members by email. They get a link that lets them use the app — no ShipLock account required on their end.

What's the URL format?

You get a subdomain like yourname.shiplock.app/app-slug. On the Shipper plan you can set a custom slug for each app. Custom domains are on the roadmap.
