# Static Preview

A free tool that generates a live preview of a Git repository or HTML file by serving it as a static site.

**Route:** surfaced by the Web Application and Frontend Hosting Platform lane's de-branded queries → dependency to vercel.com.

**Why it's on the map:** The anchor's platform uses preview deployments as a core developer workflow; this tool provides the same preview functionality for one-off repositories without requiring Vercel.

**Receipts** (verbatim from its page this run):

> Static Preview Git Repos as Static Sites Preview

> Link to a repository/folder with an index.html file on Github or Gitlab or directly to any HTML file.
