  1. Create repo on GitHub where you'll put your files.
  2. Use jsDeliver or statically to get your assets.

And links to files look like this:

I use this when I need static JavaScript files for NPM packages that don't support UMD. If I need to use it on CodePen.

npm i -g browserify uglify-js
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
