Introduction

2025 is the year AI coding tools became mainstream. Google AI Studio, Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot and other tools allow anyone to generate fully functional applications through natural language descriptions.

This article will show you how to use React2Static to build your project in the browser, then deploy it to a free hosting platform. The entire process requires no software installation - just a modern browser.

Popular AI Coding Tools

Google AI Studio - Google's online AI coding platform launched in late 2025, based on the Gemini model, generates React + Vite projects.

Claude Code - Anthropic's AI coding assistant, excels at handling complex business logic.

Cursor - Deeply integrates AI into the code editor, supporting code generation, refactoring, and debugging.

GitHub Copilot - Powered by OpenAI Codex, auto-completes code based on context.

React projects generated by these tools all require a build step before deployment. React2Static was created to solve this problem.

How React2Static Works

React2Static uses WebContainers technology to run a Node.js environment in the browser. All build processes are completed locally in your browser - code is never uploaded to any server, ensuring privacy and security.

Using React2Static

Step 1: Export Your Project

Export the ZIP file of your project from the AI coding tool. Make sure it includes the complete project structure, especially the package.json file.

Step 2: Upload and Build

Visit react2static.com

Drag and drop the ZIP file to the upload area

Click the "Start Build" button

Wait 1-3 minutes for the build to complete

Step 3: Download Results

After the build is complete, click the download button to get a ZIP package containing all static files.

Deploy to Cloudflare Pages

Cloudflare Pages offers completely free hosting services, including global CDN acceleration, automatic HTTPS, and a free .pages.dev domain.

Deployment Steps

Extract the downloaded ZIP file

Visit dash.cloudflare.com and log in

Click Workers & Pages on the left

Click Create application

Find "Looking to deploy Pages? Get started" at the bottom of the page, click Get started

Choose Drag and drop your files

Enter a project name

Drag the extracted folder to the upload area

Wait a few seconds for deployment to complete

Click the .pages.dev link to access your website

About Domains

Cloudflare automatically assigns a free .pages.dev domain with HTTPS and global CDN included. For custom domains, configure them in project settings.

Other Deployment Options

Vercel - Register an account, create a project, upload files and you're done.

Netlify - Supports drag-and-drop deployment, intuitive operation.

GitHub Pages - Free but doesn't support custom response headers, some projects may not work properly.

FAQ

Build Failed

Delete node_modules and dist folders, then repackage

Check network connection, use VPN if necessary

Build Takes Too Long

Check for unnecessary dependencies

If waiting more than 5 minutes, try refreshing the page

Features Not Working After Deployment

Check error messages in browser developer tools

If using Gemini API, configure GEMINI_API_KEY environment variable on the hosting platform

Conclusion

React2Static makes deploying AI-generated code simple. From code generation to website launch, the entire process can be completed in ten minutes.

Technology should make creation simpler. We hope this article helps more people turn good ideas into accessible websites.
