Public preview of the starter. Use the template, edit with Codex, publish to your own domain.

Alexandru Dan • AI Product and GTM

Build a Free Website with AI

Build and ship AI products people actually use.

Use this template, edit with Codex, and publish on GitHub Pages.

I help founders and product teams turn AI ideas into scoped offers, fast prototypes, and launch-ready systems that improve adoption and conversion.

The public demo shows the full path: use the template, rewrite the root files, preview locally, push to GitHub, turn on Pages, and connect your own domain.

Focus areas: AI product strategy, agent workflows, conversion messaging, and execution support.

Hosting can stay free. Your domain is usually a separate purchase.

  1. Use template
  2. Edit with Codex
  3. Preview local
  4. Push to GitHub
  5. Enable Pages
  6. Add domain + HTTPS

Static HTML/CSS/JS Preview locally Branch publish Custom domain

Keep the stack simple, and publishing stays fast.

The same pattern used by top no-code builders, but fully static.

Simple

One-page starter with no build setup

Just edit root files in Codex and preview locally. No framework install and no CI complexity.

Responsive

Template structure already mobile-friendly

The core layout and spacing are already responsive, so first edits are content and branding, not breakpoints.

Free hosting

Branch publish with GitHub Pages

Use `main` + root publishing, add your domain, and enable HTTPS once DNS and verification are in place.

Replace these with your own screenshots or photos.

Use the starter for consultant, portfolio, or launch pages.

From idea to shipped AI experience, without the usual complexity.

Simple, outcome-first collaboration.

I work with founders and lean teams that want to move fast with AI, but stay practical. We define the right use case, build a focused workflow, and get something real in front of users quickly.

My approach combines product thinking, implementation support, and conversion-focused communication so your site and your product tell the same clear story.

How we work

  • Short weekly cycles and fast feedback loops
  • Clear scope before implementation starts
  • Direct async communication and decisive execution
  • Documentation that your team can reuse

Services built for founders and product teams.

Service 01

AI Product Strategy

Clarify the right AI bets, prioritize by business impact, and define a roadmap your team can execute.

Service 02

Agentic Prototyping

Build working prototypes and operational workflows with Codex and lightweight static delivery stacks.

Service 03

GTM and Conversion Systems

Align positioning, homepage messaging, and conversion paths so visitors understand and act faster.

What success looks like in practice.

Launch Speed

Move from concept to a usable demo quickly.

The goal is to reduce time spent in abstract planning and get a working flow in front of users early.

Clarity

Make the offer obvious for buyers and internal teams.

We simplify messaging and structure so stakeholders and prospects understand value without extra calls.

Leverage

Create systems your team can keep using after launch.

Documentation, prompt recipes, and repeatable workflows ensure the work compounds beyond a one-time release.

This starter

Codex + GitHub Pages

  • Static HTML/CSS/JS and full code ownership
  • Branch publishing from main and / (root)
  • Custom domain and HTTPS supported on GitHub Pages
  • No mandatory platform subscription for hosting

Carrd

Fast one-page builder

  • Custom domain publishing requires Pro Standard or higher
  • Free/entry path is optimized for Carrd-hosted URLs
  • Great for speed, lower raw code control

Framer

Design-first editor

  • Free plan exists, but custom domain requires paid plan
  • Strong visual workflow and built-in CMS options
  • Good fit for design-heavy marketing teams

Webflow

Visual CMS platform

  • Starter plan publishes to webflow.io
  • Custom domain launch requires a paid Site plan
  • Powerful CMS and collaboration, steeper complexity

Sources: GitHub Pages publish source, GitHub custom domain, Carrd custom domain requirements, Framer pricing, Webflow pricing.

Choose this starter when

  • You want full source ownership and portability
  • You want free hosting and your own domain setup
  • You prefer prompting Codex over visual dragging

Choose a builder when

  • You need visual editing by non-technical teammates
  • You need built-in CMS and editor permissions immediately
  • You accept platform plan costs as the speed tradeoff

The commands and links you will actually use.

The shortest path from template to live site.

Recommended Prompt

Start with the landing-page prompt

Use prompts/landing-page.md first.
It gives Codex the clearest structure
for a simple homepage.

Local Preview

Run the starter locally

sh scripts/preview.sh

Git Push

Publish your changes

git add .
git commit -m "Customize website"
git push

Before GitHub Pages

Run pre-publish validation

sh scripts/prepublish-check.sh --strict

Fix warnings, then verify domain in GitHub and enable Pages.

The screenshot walkthrough still lives in QUICKSTART.md if you want the full 9-step path.

TVL Tech

Built with TVL Tech branding as the default visual baseline.

Keep this style if you want the TVL look, or replace colors, type, and imagery with your own brand in one Codex pass.

Short answers for the obvious questions.

Is this really static?

Yes. This repo uses plain HTML, CSS, and vanilla JavaScript only.

Do I need to keep this exact layout?

No. This page is the starter. Replace sections, remove what you do not need, and rearrange it however you want.

Do I need a build step?

No. The default flow is branch-based GitHub Pages publishing with no build tooling.

Can I preview the site before I publish?

Yes. Run sh scripts/preview.sh and open http://localhost:8000.

Is the custom domain optional?

The product promise includes a custom domain. GitHub Pages hosting can stay free, but the domain itself is usually a separate purchase.

What is actually free here?

The starter, GitHub repo, and GitHub Pages hosting can stay free. What usually costs money is the domain you want to connect.

Should I verify my domain in GitHub first?

Yes. GitHub recommends verifying the custom domain before you add it to the repository so you reduce takeover risk and keep ownership clearer.

What should I ask Codex to do first?

Start with prompts/landing-page.md unless you already know you want a portfolio or personal website structure.

Make the next step obvious.

Use this template and launch your own website in one session.

If you are planning an AI feature, offer redesign, or a fast launch, send context and I will propose a focused next step.

Use template, edit with Codex, run local preview, push to GitHub, enable Pages, add domain, and wait for HTTPS.
