My Photohub

Introduction

My Photohub is a web app that makes it easy to share your photos on the web. My Photohub takes your images and optimizes them for the web, creates a beautiful HTML page to show them, and hosts everything in a new GitHub Repository owned by you! Your photo web page is made available to the world via GitHub Pages. Best of all, everything is free and you are in control of the end product.

Overview

There's never been a time where people had to cope with more images. At the same time, most companies take advantage of our desire to share what we create, charging for storage.

My Photohub is designed to leverage the open web and make it easy for anyone to take a bunch of photos and turn them into a web page they can share with the world. You don't need to be a programmer to take advantage of the web or GitHub in order to share your photos.

How it Works

A My Photohub user starts by picking the images they want to share. Imagine you've just gone for a hike, and want to share a page with your favourite images from the day. A new GitHub Repository is created on your behalf, and the images are uploaded. Next, the images are automatically optimized for the web and a new HTML web page is created using GitHub Actions. Once the images and page are ready, they are stored in the new GitHub Repository, and the user is given a URL to their website.

Requirements

My Photohub doesn't store any information and isn't a cloud service in the same way that Google Photos or iCloud are. Instead, My Photohub uses GitHub Repositories and GitHub Pages to generate, store, and share photos.

All My Photohub users must have a GitHub Account to use the service.
