[MazaBoY]

There are a lot of ways to host your website using DropBox. Most simple way is to create a public folder and upload your static website and use the URL to test your website live. There are tools/websites that does this for you.

1. Brace.io

Brace is the new way to host your website. We believe that website hosting shouldn't be complicated. With Brace, updating your website is as simple as saving files in Dropbox. Brace gives you two versions of your website, a Draft version and a Production version. The Draft is for iteration and collaboration. The Production version is optimized for performance and scale.

2. DropPages

DropPages is an web application that connects to your Dropbox account to create a site for you. The benefit of using DropPages is that it does not restrict any space usage like KISSr and gives you a subdomain (yourname.droppages.com) to access your site. Follow the steps below to create your website with DropPages.

3. PanCake

Pancake is the easiest way to create and maintain a web page.

All you need to do is create a text file, and save it into the special Pancake folder in your Dropbox account. We'll turn that file into a web page for you.The best part? Updating your page is as easy as opening the text file up in Notepad, TextEdit or your favorite text editor, making the changes you want, and saving the file.

4. Kissr

KISSr is a service that lets you host static websites using Dropbox as a web host. The advantage of KISSr over other competitors discussed in this article is that it lets you register and use a proper custom domain name instead of using sub-domains or long URLs. Just go to KISSr site, enter the name you want for your site (you’ll need to start with a sub-domain) and then click on the big Try it button.

Vreun add-on chrome/ff pentru editarea fisierelor din dropbox in cazul in care nu am aplicatia instalata?

Nu inteleg logica cu care ti-ai face un site gazduit pe dropbox.

Mi se pare in regula sa directionezi unele sarcini cloud-urilor, am facut si eu lucruri de genul, dar sa ai un intreg site pe dropbox mi se pare putin deplasat.

Daca il folosesti pentru testing, learning, nu vad sa fie vreo problema. Cand vine vorba de produs bani, e alta mancare de peste.
