Making your website has never been easier.
Follow the steps below to generate a ready-to-use prompt that builds your custom website with AI — in minutes.
Tell us about your project. Only your email is required — everything else is optional.
Open Claude AI, paste your prompt, and let it build your website. Once it's ready, copy the HTML output into a file called index.html and upload it to your hosting.
Software Scientist is not affiliated with Anthropic or OpenAI.
Before you build, you need a place for your website to live. Grab a domain name and hosting plan to get started.
Once you have hosting, upload your index.html into the public_html folder. That's the whole deployment.
Paste this into a file called .htaccess in your hosting root for clean URLs (about, services, contact).
RewriteEngine On
# Redirect to HTTPS
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
# Remove trailing slash
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ /$1 [L,R=301]
# Route clean URLs to index.html
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.html [L]Apache hosting only. Your website works fine without it.

One form, one prompt
Your answers become a complete technical brief — pages, colours, contact links and layout rules included.
One file to upload
Everything comes back as a single index.html. No build tools, no folders, no framework versions.
Actually goes live
Learn how a domain and hosting fit together, then put your site at a real address people can visit.
The parts of a website, explained plainly.
Short explainers for the things the builder assumes you know. Full lessons are being written.
How to build a website with AI
Describe the project, generate a detailed prompt, review what comes back, then refine it in small steps. The brief does most of the work.
What is HTML?
The structure of a page — headings, paragraphs, links and sections, marked up so browsers and screen readers understand them.
How CSS works
The look. You select an element and describe its colour, spacing, type and layout, including how it changes on a small screen.
How JavaScript works
The behaviour. It reacts to clicks and taps and changes the page without reloading — which is how one file acts like four pages.
How to buy a domain
A domain is rented, not owned. You pay a registrar each year to point that name at your hosting. Keep it short and easy to say aloud.
How web hosting works
Hosting is a computer that stays online and hands your files to visitors. Shared hosting is plenty for a single HTML file.
How to deploy an HTML website
Upload index.html into your host's public folder, usually public_html, then visit your domain. Nothing to compile.
What is .htaccess?
A small config file Apache reads on every request. It can force https, tidy trailing slashes and route unknown paths to index.html.
How clean URLs work
Instead of index.html#about, visitors see /about. The server serves the same file and JavaScript reads the path to pick a section.

About Software Scientist
Software Scientist is an educational platform for people who want to learn technology by building something real, using the tools professionals actually use today.
Most beginners get stuck in the same place: they can follow a tutorial, but they can't start from a blank page and an idea. AI removes the blank page. What it doesn't remove is knowing what to ask for — which is where this platform sits.
You describe a project in ordinary language, the platform turns it into a structured technical brief, and you watch how a precise instruction produces a precise result. Then you learn what the code does, how to put it online, and how to keep it working.
What we care about
- Real output. Every student finishes with a website at a real address, not a screenshot.
- Understanding over shortcuts. The AI writes the code; you should still be able to read and change it.
- Accessible by default. Semantic markup, keyboard support and readable contrast are requirements, not extras.
- Honesty about what's built. Features that don't exist yet are labelled as such.
Software Scientist operates at softwarescientist.in, with softwarescientist.org reserved for organisation and brand use.

What we collect
When you use the builder, the platform handles the name, email, phone number and project details you type into the form. In this version that information stays in your own browser's local storage and is not sent to a server.
Why
Your details are used to assemble your website-building prompt and to keep your work if you close the tab.
Third parties
This site loads fonts from Google Fonts. Analytics and advertising are inactive unless a measurement ID or AdSense client ID has been configured. Update this section at that point.
Your control
Clear everything this site has stored by clearing your browser's site data for this domain.
Terms of Use
Placeholder text, written for editing. Not reviewed by a lawyer.
Using this platform
Software Scientist provides educational material and a tool that generates website-building prompts. You are responsible for the content you enter and the website you publish.
AI-generated output
Websites produced by third-party AI assistants are generated by those tools, not by Software Scientist. Review the output before publishing it.
Trademarks
Claude is a product of Anthropic. ChatGPT is a product of OpenAI. Software Scientist is not affiliated with either company; links are provided for convenience.
Affiliate Disclosure
How we handle recommendations
Hosting is recommended because it suits beginners publishing a single HTML file. The recommendation would be the same with or without a commission, and any link that earns one is disclosed next to the button itself.
Cost to you
Referral commissions are paid by the provider out of their own margin. Buying through a referral link does not increase what you pay.
