Over here, yes: https://oer.gitlab.io/OS/index-terms.html

I use this in my publish code:

	   (list "org-presentations"
		 :base-directory "."
		 :base-extension "org"
		 :makeindex oer-reveal-publish-makeindex
		 :exclude "index\\|backmatter\\|config\\|course-list\\|license-template\\|imprint\\|privacy\\|README\\|CONTRIBUTING\\|CHANGELOG"
		 :publishing-function oer-reveal-publish-org-publishing-functions
		 :publishing-directory "./public")

where oer-reveal-publish-makeindex is t and my publish.el makes sure
to publish to HTML:
https://gitlab.com/oer/OS/-/blob/master/elisp/publish.el

  (list "index-terms"
	:base-directory "."
	;; A file theindex.org (which includes theindex.inc)
	;; is created due to assignment to
	;; oer-reveal-publish-makeindex above.
	;; Using that setting, the file is automatically published with
	;; org-re-reveal, which is useless.
	;; Thus, publish as HTML here.  For this to work, index-terms.org
	;; is a manually created file including theindex.inc.
	;; The preparation and completion functions below set up an
	;; advice on org-html-link to rewrite links into presentations
	;; using org-re-reveal's anchor format.
	:include '("index-terms.org")
	:exclude ".*"
	:preparation-function 'oer-reveal--add-advice-link
	:completion-function 'oer-reveal--remove-advice-link
	:publishing-function '(org-html-publish-to-html)
	:publishing-directory "./public")

So, do you see theindex.org and theindex.inc?  Do you publish the
former?

Best wishes
