⭐ If PlainHub helps you, please star this repo — your support directly powers new features.

PlainHub is an AI-driven online editor that makes GitHub simple for everyone. No Git knowledge required. Open, edit, save — directly to your repo. Handles huge files with ease. Control GitHub with natural language — just tell the AI what you want. For engineers and non-engineers alike, working together in the same place.

Why PlainHub

• GitHub-native — All files stay in your GitHub repository. No proprietary server or database required.
• 100% client-side — Runs entirely in your browser. PlainHub never sees your data.
• BYOK (Bring Your Own Key) — Use your own AI API keys (e.g., Anthropic Claude). Keys stay in your browser, never sent to PlainHub servers.
• AI for idea development — Brainstorm, write, and edit alongside an AI assistant. Voice input and TTS read-aloud supported.
• Frontend for GitHub — Like github.dev, but for non-engineers. A notepad with version control built in.
