# URL Protocol Converter
|
|
|
|
A simple, standalone web app that converts protocol URLs (like steam://) to shareable HTTPS links that work on any platform. Perfect for sharing URLs that normally aren't clickable on social media, chat platforms, or other websites.

|
|
## How it Works
|
|
|
|
1. Using the web interface at [steadirect.com](https://steadirect.com), or by creating URLs directly:
|
|
```
|
|
https://steadirect.com/?url=steam://joinlobby/1131190/109775241747665514
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. When someone clicks the generated link, the app automatically redirects them to the original protocol URL:
|
|
```
|
|
steam://joinlobby/1131190/109775241747665514
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
|
|
The converter works with any protocol URL, for example:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
steam://joinlobby/1131190/109775241747665514
|
|
discord://discord.com/channels/123456789
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Generated shareable link:
|
|
```
|
|
https://steadirect.com/?url=steam://joinlobby/1131190/109775241747665514
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The app can also be self-hosted - it will automatically use whatever domain it's running on to generate the correct links.
