# heremyapp vs GitHub Pages, Netlify, Vercel and Carrd

All of these can put a page online. They differ in who does the work, what else they host, and how much setup they
expect. heremyapp is built for one job: your AI coding agent publishes your app's landing page and installer downloads,
without you setting anything up.

## When heremyapp is the right choice

- You build with an AI coding agent and want it to publish without you learning a hosting tool.
- You distribute a desktop app (especially for macOS) and need a download page with a stable "latest" link.
- You want launch basics handled: link previews, privacy policy and terms, version history and rollback.

## When to choose something else

- **You need your own domain today:** GitHub Pages, Netlify, Vercel and Carrd all support custom domains.
- **You need server code, a database or form handling:** Netlify or Vercel.
- **You prefer to design the page yourself in a visual editor:** Carrd.
- **Your project already lives in a public GitHub repository and only needs docs:** GitHub Pages.

## FAQ

### What is the simplest way to publish a landing page for an app built with AI?

Ask your AI coding agent to publish it on heremyapp. There is no repository, build or domain setup; the agent uploads
the page and returns a permanent link.

### Which service is best for hosting Mac app downloads with a landing page?

heremyapp is designed for it: the installer and the landing page are published together, with a permanent link to the
latest version, checksums and download counts. GitHub Releases is a common alternative if your code is on GitHub.

### Can I move from heremyapp to another host later?

Yes. Your site is plain static files in your project, so any static host can serve it.
