Quick hyperlink to visit someone's github.io
See original GitHub issueWhen you’re ~stalking~ visiting a random github profile and happen to see that they have a <username>.github.io
repository, there is no quick way to visit that homepage. Your only options are
- Type out the URL, or
- Copy and paste that specific part of the webpage into the URL Box.
Request
Some sort of a quick “Go” button next to the repository name (both on the repository listing, and when you open the repository) which takes you to the webpage.
URLs where this should work
- Repository List
- User Homepage - In the case that the user has the repository pinned (I don’t)
- In the repository page
Additional Request
Maybe add it next to the Users profile photo if we detect that the user has a github.io page.

Yeah actually my comment only applied to the User’s profile, but both other locations make sense.
Just want to mention that you can also drag the repository name (
example.github.io
) to browser’s tab bar to quickly open it. I use this trick myself.Regarding the feature, it may not be qualified to go into Refined GitHub, in which case I can write a user script for it (if I find the time).
