asciinema is a very useful. But, what I found unappealing about it was that I needed asciinema to play the recordings (is that still the case?). I wanted to be able to put the rendered session anywhere I wanted.

The example links are actually hosted on my server and were uploaded using Dropshare. Pretty easy peasy if I need to share something that I don't want public.

asciinema stores the raw program output including any terminal escape sequences in a JSON format[1] and then uses a javascript terminal emulation library to replay/recreate the terminal state in your browser. The player, made up of one Javascript and one CSS file, can be self hosted[2].

This doesn't meet my criteria for easy peasy :(

If there was a utility that converted that json file to a single HTML file, that'd be a different story. If you feel up to doing that, tmux2html uses an MIT license, so feel free to use the parts that parses the escape sequences.
