Bzzdex: turn an AI-made page into an app with its own link
Asked ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini for a little game? Paste the single HTML file into Bzzdex and it becomes an app with its own link. Here's how it works.
These days you can ask an AI for a tic-tac-toe game and have working code in seconds. The tricky part comes next: how do you get that game onto a friend’s phone?
The moment words like server, hosting and deploy show up, most people stop. Bzzdex is built so you never have to learn any of that. Let’s see how it works. 🐝
What is Bzzdex?
Bzzdex is where a single HTML file an AI wrote for you becomes an app with its own link. The home page sums it up in one line:
One file. One link. One buzz.
It’s not only for games. Timers, unit converters, flashcards and other little tools for class or everyday life work just the same.

Every app’s address is eight characters, chosen automatically, like fx7wwipt.bzzdex.com. You can’t pick your own. The Terms explain why: a chosen address can itself be used to impersonate someone.
Stuck for an idea? Start from a prompt example
If you don’t know what to make yet, press New app and browse the prompt examples: games, tools, learning, art and everyday helpers.
Open one, like Tic tac toe, and you’ll see Change these if you like. Choose who you play and how hard the computer is, and the prompt rewrites itself on the spot. Then press Copy the prompt, or send it straight to a new chat with ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini.
Under the prompt, What it uses points out the prompting techniques inside, such as One file only and Have it check itself. So you pick up how to talk to an AI while you’re making something fun.
The Hive: a dex of tiny apps
Share an app to the Hive and it gets a dex number like #0001. As likes pile up, its border changes colour, and editors’ picks wear a gold star.
You can also open the gallery at bzzdex.com, which shows a phone-sized picture of each app’s first screen, so you know what an app is before you tap it.
The prompt behind the app
Here’s the part we love most as teachers. When the maker chooses to share it, an app’s page shows The prompt behind this, along with which AI made it.
That means the Hive keeps more than the finished apps. It keeps how someone asked for them, and that makes it great reading material when you teach people to use AI well.

Frequently asked questions
What can I publish on Bzzdex?
A single HTML file with its CSS and JavaScript inside, the kind of file an AI such as ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini can write for you. Games, timers, quizzes and small tools all work.
Who can use Bzzdex?
Publishing needs a Google sign-in, and only people who are 14 or older can create an account. Anyone can open a shared link or browse the Hive without signing in.
Can I choose my app's address?
No. Every app gets an eight-character address chosen automatically. According to the Terms, that's because a chosen address can itself be used to impersonate someone.
Where do I get an idea for an app?
Start from a prompt example. Pick a few options, and the prompt rewrites itself. Copy it, or open it straight in ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini.
