GotHub

Alternative front-end for GitHub written with Go. (WIP) Matrix

Features

• Lightweight - for both you and the instance host
• No JavaScript - pure HTML and CSS goodness
• No requests made to Micro$oft - they won't even know you made a request!
• Open source - for peer review & trustworthiness
• Save bandwidth - no JavaScript/tracking bloat loaded!

Instances

Master Branch

These instances run the master branch of GotHub. This means that the version of GotHub they're running has been tested and approved by at least two GotHub maintainers.

Dev Branch

These instances run the dev branch of GotHub. While this might mean they are always up to date, they might not be. However, this does mean that you can get the latest and greatest, but could potentially have bugs and other nasty stuff.

Setup

Docker

We recommend Docker as it is easy to update GotHub that way and it is easy to setup. Packages page

docker run -d -p 3000:3000 --name gothub codeberg.org/gothub/gothub

If you are using Portainer or Podman, you know how to create the GotHub container.

Manual

You will need an installation of Go 1.19+ installed on your system.

git clone https://codeberg.org/gothub/gothub.git
cd gothub
go build -o gothub
./gothub serve

If you don't want to use port 3000 for GotHub, set the GOTHUB_PORT environment variable to the port you want to use.
