Buddy Drop puts your site or app online in seconds. Just drop your folder, ZIP, or files and choose from a range of free domains or connect your own. Buddy takes care of the rest, from hosting and deployment to previews and versioning. No signup required.
We built Buddy Drop to make getting your project online as simple as possible.
Just drop your folder, ZIP, or files, choose a free domain or connect your own, and Buddy takes care of the rest.
It works for simple static sites as well as dynamic apps built with frameworks like Next.js, Nuxt, Astro, Remix, TanStack, Express or Lovable.
You can update your project just as easily by dropping new files. And as it grows, you can add backends, databases, background jobs, monitoring, and more.
We’re also running a Buddy Drop launch contest with $1,000 in Buddy credits up for grabs. Build something interesting, publish it with Drop, and share it on X to enter. Go to our launch page for the details: https://buddy.works/drop/contest
We’d love to hear what you think and what you’re building with it. Give it a try!
drop-and-deploy is a crowded corner (netlify drop, vercel) but "free domain forever" is the hook. what's the catch on storage - do idle sites get archived after a while, or does it genuinely sit there untouched even if nobody visits again?
Congrats on the launch guys! Does dropping new files overwrite the live site or make a preview first? +1 to no signup...
No signup plus free subdomains is the combination phishing pages go looking for. What happens when someone drops a fake bank login? On a free tier of my own the per-IP rate limits I tried let bursts straight through, so I'm curious what's doing the work here.
Every weekend project dies in the same spot: it's done, but there's nowhere to show it, because hosting is a "deal with it on Monday" thing. Drop takes Monday out of the equation.
Curious how many abandoned side projects will finally see daylight because of this, especially with the $1k contest as extra motivation.
Looks really handy for quick prototypes and testing ideas.
Sometimes you just want to put something online fast, without setting up a whole project around it. I think I saw on X there’s some contest going on too? Can’t find it now
Really simple idea but super useful.
Just drop the files and you have a live link a few seconds later.
Been looking for something like this
Really proud of the team on this one. Honestly my favorite part is that it's not just "upload and done". You drop your files and you already get a git repo, CI/CD and previews behind it, so if the project takes off you don't have to redo everything. Go drop something and tell us how it went!
We built this to make sharing what you create as frictionless as possible.
You get a clean domain for your project, and out of the box we set up a Git repo, a CI/CD pipeline, and Visual Tests - so you're not just publishing a one-off build, you already have a proper delivery workflow behind it.
The Git repo + delivery pipeline also means the project can naturally grow beyond the first drop: keep iterating on it, bring your team in, review changes, test them, and keep shipping.
Really excited to see what you've been building. Can't wait for your drops!
