Just a reminder that technology doesn't have to be as complicated as finding hosting for a static site or setting up a desktop app with Electron or whatever. Software distribution, fundamentally, is providing functionality. Every computer owner has access to an internet browser. If the functionality being distributed can be as simple as zipped up html files, you can simply send over zipped up html files.

Tell the receiver to open the file in their browser. Keep it simple
