FastGithub is a local proxy tool that accelerates access to GitHub by resolving clean IPs, speed-testing them, and proxying HTTPS traffic through the fastest connection. It is a maintained fork of the archived dotnetcore/fastgithub project, written in C#, and runs as a desktop app or system service on Windows, Linux, and macOS.

Use cases

• github won't load in my browser
• github avatars and images fail to load
• git clone from github is too slow or fails
• git push and git pull to github keep timing out
• can't download or upload github releases
• foreign websites fail to load js and css from google cdn
• speed up github access from china

When to choose

• you need faster, more reliable access to github.com and its assets from a network with poor connectivity to it
• you want a self-hosted local proxy with automatic IP testing and selection
• you need git clone/push/pull and release downloads to work reliably

When to avoid

• you need general internet censorship circumvention or VPN functionality - FastGithub explicitly does not provide that
• you cannot or will not install and trust a locally generated CA certificate on your device
• you are on an unsupported OS like Windows 7
• you need game acceleration
