Host sketch files on github? #22

Open liwp opened 3 years ago

liwp commented 3 years ago

Twice in the recent past the EDTracker UI has failed to start, because www.edtracker.org.uk has been down (or DNS has been down). Would it be possible to host the sketch files on github and update the UI to look for them there (or both at edtracker.org.uk and github). The assumption here is that github will be available more reliably than edtracker.org.uk - maybe that's not true...

There are a few blockers to this at the moment but it's a great, and valid, suggestion.

One - I don't own or run edtracker.org.uk, but that in itself isn't a problem because I agree that it would be cooler to pull the stuff down from github anyway.

Two - and more critically - I don't have any source code for the UI, this has never been made available. So unless @pocketmoon wants to open source it, someone will have to write a new UI from scratch. Volunteers welcome 😉
