An in5 subscription allows you to export your content as HTML5 from InDesign.
With in5, you can create a layout in InDesign and export it as HTML5. The exported content is placed in a generated folder named "html5_output" that contains all the files needed for your content to appear and function in modern browsers and on a variety of devices.
After you export your content, the next step is to upload it to the web. You can choose your own hosting, or use a free hosting option. Here are some materials to help you with acquiring hosting, uploading your content, and using free hosting alternatives:
