Overview

Statically is a free CDN for developers that accelerates static assets from GitHub, GitLab, npm, and WordPress, with no account or API key required. Simply replace your raw file URL with the Statically CDN URL and your files are served from a global edge network instantly. It is especially handy for loading open-source libraries, images, or project files during development.

Common Errors & Troubleshooting

404 Not Found The referenced file path, branch, or repository does not exist
Verify the GitHub repo, branch name, and file path are correct; check the file exists on the specified branch
Stale or cached old file Statically caches files at the CDN edge and may serve an old version
Append a version tag or commit hash to the URL instead of using a branch name, e.g., use a specific tag like v3.7.1
CORS error in browser Some asset types may not include CORS headers by default
Statically typically includes CORS headers; if blocked, ensure you are requesting a public repository and a supported file type
