Requirements & compatibility

What App To Page needs to run (WordPress 5.8+, PHP 7.4+, any host), which apps and file types it supports, and what isn't a fit.

App To Page is designed to run just about anywhere WordPress does. Here’s exactly what it needs, what it can host, and the few things it can’t.

What you need

  • WordPress 5.8 or newer.
  • PHP 7.4 or newer.
  • Administrator access to install the plugin and manage apps.

That’s the whole list. There’s no Node, no build step on the server, and nothing to provision — so ordinary shared hosting (Bluehost, SiteGround, Hostinger, and the like) works fine. Most sites have met these versions for years.

What you can host

Any browser-only app — anything that runs from static files in a browser:

  • Single-page apps built with Vite, React, Vue, or Svelte.
  • Plain HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, including canvas and WebGL games.
  • Asset-heavy tools like 3D model viewers, STL generators, and configurators.

If it’s a folder with an index.html that works when you open it locally, App To Page can serve it.

Supported file types

App To Page serves modern web assets with the correct content types, including:

  • Scripts & stylesjs, mjs, css
  • WebAssemblywasm
  • Fontswoff, woff2, ttf
  • Imagespng, jpg, svg, webp, avif, gif
  • 3D modelsstl, glb, gltf
  • Audio & videomp3, ogg, wav, mp4, webm
  • Datajson, wasm, and other common static assets

For security, it will not serve php files or dotfiles — your upload is treated as static assets, never runnable server code.

What isn’t a fit

App To Page hosts build output; it doesn’t run a server or build your app. So these aren’t supported:

  • Apps that need a Node/PHP server at runtime (for example, Next.js or Nuxt with server-side rendering or API routes). A fully static export of those does work.
  • Server-side build steps — build locally or in CI, then upload the result.
  • Anything that isn’t ultimately static files a browser can run.

Frequently asked questions

Does App To Page work on shared hosting?

Yes. It serves static files from your existing WordPress install — no Node, no special server config, nothing to provision — so shared hosting like Bluehost or SiteGround works.

What are the minimum WordPress and PHP versions?

WordPress 5.8+ and PHP 7.4+. If you’re on a reasonably current site, you already meet both.

Can it host a Next.js or Nuxt app?

Only a static export of one. App To Page serves build output, so apps that need a live Node server (SSR or API routes) aren’t a fit, but a fully static build is.

Is there anything it refuses to serve?

Yes — php files and dotfiles are never served. Uploads are treated strictly as static assets, which keeps your site safe.
