Instantly Host HTMX Snippet from Claude Code for Live Mockup Deployment
The fastest way to deploy HTMX Snippet generated by Claude Code. Perfect for live mockup deployment. No login required, zero-friction, and live in seconds on drpr.host.
When utilizing Claude Code to rapidly scaffold HTMX snippets, you get highly interactive, server-driven UI elements directly in your terminal interface. However, sharing these interactive mockups with stakeholders or testing them on various mobile devices introduces immediate friction. Copying block outputs, launching local development servers, or configuring tunnel endpoints breaks your engineering momentum and complicates what should be a simple review cycle.
Our platform eliminates this workflow friction. By piping your generated HTML straight to our upload endpoint, you instantly get a live mockup deployment without authentication or server configuration. This allows you to evaluate HTMX interactions, transition effects, and dynamic event handling in a real web browser on any device.
Integrating drpr.host into your Claude Code workspace allows you to instruct the AI agent to write the output code, deploy it directly to our API, and return a functional public URL in a single pass. The agent can configure realistic styling—using soft gray (#f4f4f5) backgrounds and avoiding pure white—and deploy the interactive component on the spot for client review.
How to host your HTMX Snippet from Claude Code in seconds
- Step 1: Direct Claude Code to generate your HTMX snippet using inline scripts and a modern, soft gray palette background (#f4f4f5) to ensure a polished look.
- Step 2: Instruct the agent to write the finalized markup to a local file, such as
component.html, within your development directory. - Step 3: Execute a POST request using cURL or use the lightweight drpr CLI to upload the component file to our platform instantly.
- Step 4: Capture the returned
drpr.siteURL from the JSON response to view, test, and share your live mockup deployment.
Quick start
Deploy your generated HTMX component directly from your terminal using standard HTTP tools:
# Upload your component via cURL
curl -X POST -F "file=@component.html" https://drpr.host/api/v1/upload
# Expected JSON response:
# {
# "success": true,
# "url": "https://rapid-mockup-9a82.drpr.site",
# "expires_in": "15 days",
# "size_bytes": 8421
# }
Alternatively, streamline the process using the official CLI tool:
# Deploy with a single command
drpr upload component.html
Common questions
- Can I automate the HTMX deployment directly inside a Claude Code session?
- Yes. You can configure Claude Code with a system prompt or instruction file that explicitly authorizes the execution of shell commands. Once Claude generates the HTMX snippet, it can automatically execute a cURL command to drpr.host and output the live deployment link in your terminal chat.
- Are there any size restrictions or account requirements for hosting mockups?
- There are no registration or authentication hurdles required. Anyone can instantly host static snippets up to 5 MB on our free tier, making it ideal for temporary preview links, quick code spikes, and interactive design validation.
- How long do live mockup deployments remain active on drpr.host?
- Mockup deployments uploaded without an account remain fully active for 15 days. For permanent project hosting and custom domain associations, you can link the deployments to a paid drpr.host developer account.
- Will HTMX requests directed to external API endpoints work on my deployed live mockup?
- Yes, HTMX attributes like hx-get, hx-post, and hx-put will execute correctly from your deployed page, provided that the target backend API allows Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) requests originating from your generated drpr.site domain.
