Referencing a .css file in github repo as stylesheet in a .html file
Solution 1:
Important: rawgit.com is shutting down. Read more about other alternatives here - https://rawgit.com/
Found something really cool. You get the raw link as: http://raw.github.com/...
Simply fetch the files from rawgit.com (or cdn.rawgit.com
) instead of raw.github.com
and DONE!
UPDATE:
You can also use raw.githack.com if you want to serves raw files directly from Bitbucket or GitLab
Solution 2:
GitHub repos aren't web hosting, you should push that stuff up to a service specifically designed to serve files, like pages.github.com.
Solution 3:
Check out https://gitcdn.link/ . Seems to work well.
Rawgit.com has shut down.
Solution 4:
- First Visit RawGit as suggested earlier
- Next copy your file path from github into the RawGit box
- RawGit will automatically produce two refrences to your web page
- The Development and Production refrence
- refrence the development link in your webpage if you are still developing
- save/upload then reload your webpage
- if there was no change it means your browser has saved your former refrence
- clear your browser data then reload
- Hope that helps?
