Pory

YES

Replaceable in one session with an AI coding agent.

Turns a spreadsheet or table into a website: directories, listings and simple apps generated from rows, with filtering and detail pages.

Promptfree, for everyone, and the only version there is

Build a directory site from a sheet.

STACK
- Astro in static output, the sheet exported as CSV or read through an API at build time

THE BUILD
- Fetch the rows, validate them against a schema, fail the build on a bad row
- Validation is the difference between a directory and a mess: a missing URL should stop the build, not render blank

PAGES
- One listing page with client-side filtering over a JSON index
- One detail page per row, statically generated, with its own meta tags

SEARCH
- Build the index at compile time; filter in the browser with no service

KEEPING IT CURRENT
- A scheduled rebuild, plus a webhook from the sheet if it offers one
- State the rebuild interval on the page so nobody is misled about freshness

Include the schema validation, the build and the filter.

What you lose

A live site that updates when the sheet does, with no deployment step
Templates for directories and listings that already look finished
Filtering, search and detail pages generated without configuration

Why this verdict

our own opinion · changed only by a person

86/100

Verdict yes at 86. A static site from a sheet is a build script. Validating rows and failing the build is what keeps it from degrading.
