Shared hosting

Can AI build a PHP website on a $5 shared hosting plan?

Yes. Genes is designed for ordinary PHP hosting. You do not need Node.js, Composer, Docker, a build server or a VPS. Ask an AI to generate the files, upload them with FTP, and run the site with PHP and optionally SQLite.

What you need

A PHP hosting plan, FTP access, an SSL certificate and a database only when the project needs editable or queryable content. For many small websites, this is enough.
