HtmlDrag v2.0: AI creation now has File Mode, Thinking, and a redesigned Template Mode

I just shipped the biggest HtmlDrag update so far: v2.0.

This release is focused on one thing: making AI-assisted HTML creation more practical.

What’s new
AI Creator
The AI side of HtmlDrag is now a much bigger part of the product.

File Mode
You can upload source files and turn them into editable HTML pages.

Supported formats:

JPG / JPEG / PNG / WEBP
DOCX / MD / TXT
Thinking
For more complex source material, Thinking helps the system spend more effort understanding the content before generating structure and output.

Template Mode, redesigned
I rebuilt the original AI generation flow to make it more usable in real workflows.

New additions:

custom styles
custom HTML sizes
Privacy
Files are processed in a local-first flow and won’t be stored in the cloud after processing.

A founder note
I used AI heavily to complete this upgrade.
That was intentional.
I wanted this release to reflect not only the product’s AI capability, but also my own ability to guide AI into something structured and useful.

What’s next
I’m planning to add:

PDF support
PPT support
Changelog
launched AI Creator
added File Mode
added image and document support
added Thinking
redesigned Template Mode
added custom styles
added custom HTML sizes
clarified the local-first / no cloud storage-after-processing privacy flow
