Gaac

Gaac is a web tool that provides a simple interface for using a public GitHub repository as a content delivery network (CDN). You connect your GitHub account, and then you can drag and drop files directly into it. The tool handles uploading your images, documents, or other static assets to your repo, making them instantly available online via a direct URL. It’s designed to eliminate the manual process of committing and pushing files through Git for this specific use case.

The tool works by giving you a clean, web-based uploader. You can drag files into the browser window or paste them from your clipboard. A standout feature is its ability to create directory structures on the fly simply by including slashes in the filenames you upload (e.g., 'blog/images/picture.jpg'). Once uploaded, you can search through your files and preview them directly on the site, with a click to copy the public URL. It’s open source, built on GitHub's own infrastructure for reliability, and completely free to use.

This is most useful for developers, technical writers, and bloggers who frequently need to host static assets for their projects, documentation, or articles. Instead of setting up a separate CDN service, they can leverage a free GitHub repo they already have. A common use case is embedding images in a blog post or website by quickly uploading them via Gaac and then using the generated GitHub URL directly in Markdown or HTML.
