This demo showcase how to run Git in browser but write to a real user file system folder. It is possible through File System Access API. The API allows to request a folder from user and then use it as a real file system in browser.
In this demo we use memfs
to create a Node fs
-like file system in browser
out of the folder provided by File System Access API. We then use isomorphic-git
to run Git commands on that file system.
In the demo itself we initiate a Git repo, then we create a README.md
file, we
stage it, and finally we commit it.
