Hi! RawGit is shutting down.

Repos that served content through RawGit within the last month will continue to be served until 2019, but should migrate away as soon as possible. URLs for other repos are no longer being served.

More details: rawgit.com/

@bootsy this is the first time i've heard of this site. what does it do?

@sc served files from github with correct content types
github usually serves it all as plaintext

@sc its kinda hard to explain if yr not a webdev?

@bootsy i'm assuming it takes files from a github repo and serves them to your website via rawgit?

@sc @bootsy pretty much. it takes the files from every github repo and serves them in a way that web browsers like

@00dani @bootsy ah okay. im assuming jsdelivr is a similar service?

@sc @bootsy yeah, it does exactly the same thing (it works with a few other sources besides github as well, tho, so that's cool)
