Looking to access HTML files (source iSpring Powerpoint) through a subdomain pointing to a DigitalOcean droplet. I’m not a developer, but set up the droplet and the SSH key. I’ve also mapped the subdomain. Now, I just want to add the HTML files and be able to access those through a URL. Thanks.

Hello,
What you could do is to use SFTP to upload your HTML files to the
/var/www/htmldirectory as described here:https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/droplets/how-to/transfer-files/
An alternative option would be to use the DigitalOcean App Platform which offers free hosting for up to 3 static websites as show in the video here:
Hope that this helps!
Best,
Bobby
