Prepare the Dough:

In a large bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes foamy.
Make the Dough:

Add the flour, salt, and oil to the yeast mixture. Mix until a dough forms.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until it is smooth and elastic.
Let the Dough Rise:

Place the kneaded dough in a greased bowl. Cover it with a clean cloth and let it rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size, about 1 hour.
Preheat the Oven:

Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up.
Shape the Pizza:

Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release any air bubbles. Roll it out on a floured surface to your desired thickness.
Transfer the Dough:

Transfer the rolled-out dough to a baking sheet or pizza peel (if using a pizza stone).
Add Toppings:

Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on top.
Add your favorite toppings.
