Share Koru Scenes Online

Koru exports standard web files: HTML and JavaScript. That means you can publish them almost anywhere — no special servers required. This tutorial shows you the simplest way: using drag-and-drop hosting services that give you a public link in seconds.

A Quick but Important Note

For your scene to work properly online after publishing, the HTML file must be named “index.html”.

If you export a single file, rename it to index.html before uploading. If you export multiple files (.html + .js + .koruDat), make sure the HTML file is named index.html — the other files can keep their original names. Some services may handle this automatically, but it’s safer to do it yourself.

Why Drag-and-Drop Hosting?

These services take the files Koru exports and make them live on the internet immediately. You don’t need to know about servers, domains, or deployment. Just drag, drop, and share.

The best part? You’re not tied to any one company. If a service changes or shuts down, your files are still on your computer — just drag and drop them somewhere else.

What You’ll Need

1. Your scene ready in Koru
2. The scene exported using either Single File Export (one .html file) or Export for Server (.html + .js + .koruDat files)
3. A modern web browser

The General Idea

All services below work the same way:

• You export your scene from Koru
• You go to the service’s website
• You drag your file or files onto the page
• Seconds later, you get a live link
• Share that link with anyone

Some services let you do this without creating an account. Others offer free accounts so you can manage your scenes later (update them, see stats, or delete them). Most also have paid plans if you need more traffic, custom domains, or extra features.

Five Services to Try

Here are five reliable options. They all have free tiers and are designed for exactly this kind of simple publishing.

1. Netlify Drop

How it works: Go to app.netlify.com/drop, drag your exported file or files onto the page, wait a few seconds, and get your link.

Nice touches: You can create a free account later to manage all your scenes in one place, update them by dragging files again, or set up a custom domain.

Limits: Very generous free tier. Paid plans available for more features.

2. Pages Drop

How it works: Visit pages.drop, drag your file onto the page, and instantly receive a public URL.

Note: Pages Drop supports single HTML files only — which works perfectly if you used Single File Export in Koru. If you exported for server, choose one of the other services instead.

Nice touches: Built on reliable infrastructure. No account required for basic publishing.

Limits: Free tier includes 500 deployments per month, which is plenty for most users.

3. Tiiny.host

How it works: Go to tiiny.host, drag your file or files onto the upload area, and get your link. Works with single HTML files or multiple files (as a ZIP).

Note: You’ll need to enter your email address to publish — they’ll send you a link to manage your scene later. Some users appreciate this, others prefer no-email options.

Nice touches: Very straightforward interface. Free tier gives you a basic tiiny.host subdomain. Paid plans let you use your own domain, password-protect scenes, and get analytics.

Limits: Free sites are public with some traffic and file size limits — fine for sharing with clients or on social media.

4. Static.run

How it works: Navigate to static.run, create a free account and verify your email, then drag your file or files onto the page.

Note: You’ll need to sign up and verify your email before you can publish — there’s no anonymous upload option. Once you have an account, the drag-drop process itself is simple.

Nice touches: Unlimited traffic even on the free plan. Sites stay online as long as you log in at least once every 90 days. Free SSL and custom domain support.

Limits: Requires account creation upfront, but after that it’s straightforward.

5. Static.app

How it works: Go to static.app, sign up for a free account, and verify your email. Once logged in, you can drag your files (as a ZIP) onto your dashboard to publish.

Note: Account creation is required upfront, but after that the process is simple. The free plan includes one site, 50 MB storage, and a static.app subdomain.

Nice touches: Clean interface, free SSL certificate included. Paid plans start for more storage and features like custom domains.

A Note on Multiple Files

If you used Export for Server, you’ll have three files: an .html file, a .js file, and a .koruDat file. When dragging to these services, you can either:

• Drag all three files at once (most services accept multiple files)
• Or select them together in your folder and drag as a group

The service will keep them together and everything will work just like on your computer. Just remember that the HTML file should be named index.html.

Already Have a Website?

If you already have a website, you can also upload the exported files there using FTP or your hosting control panel. Just place them somewhere and link to the HTML file. The drag-and-drop services above are simply the fastest path when you want a link immediately.

Exploring Further

These five are just a starting point. Search for “drag and drop static hosting” or “static web hosting” and you’ll find many more. Because Koru exports standard files, you’re free to choose any service that fits your needs today — and switch whenever you want.

Your 3D scenes are just files. Publishing them online doesn’t require magic or vendor lock-in. Pick a service, drag your files, and share your work. Simple as that.
