description: >-
  Divshot was a front-end and static web application hosting platform based in Santa
  Monica, California, and a 500 Global portfolio company. It offered command-line
  deploys of single-page and static applications across development, staging and
  production environments, with instant environment URLs, custom domains and SSL
  certificate upload, environment variables and app configuration, HTTP basic-auth
  protection of environments, cache purging, release promotion and rollback, and
  per-app webhooks. Divshot published a first-party CLI (divshot-cli) and a JavaScript
  API client (divshot-api) on npm, and open-sourced Superstatic, the static web server
  behind the platform. Divshot was acquired by Google in 2015 and folded into Firebase
  Hosting. The service is defunct - divshot.com no longer resolves and no live API,
  documentation or developer portal remains. This profile is a historical record built
  from the surviving first-party npm packages and GitHub repositories.

  connect, as re-probed 2026-07-20. api.divshot.com, docs.divshot.com and
  www.divshot.com likewise do not resolve. Every first-party npm package was last
  published in 2014-2015. The github.com/divshot organization still resolves (HTTP
  200) and is the only surviving public surface. Divshot was a front-end/static web
  application hosting platform acquired by Google in 2015 and folded into Firebase
  Hosting. divshot.io is now an unrelated third-party WordPress placeholder on
  Hostinger and is not operated by Divshot.'
