Is it possible to use the github releases as a sever to host updates that esky can use? And if yes, how do I implement this especially with regards to the url I provide to the

updater = esky.Esky(sys.executable, "http://localhost:8000")

command? Or do I have to host my releases somewhere else, and if that is the case, does anybody have any suggestions (preferably at no cost).

The default Esky finder needs a directory to look in. You could extend it to look in and download from github releases.

I have had success with using Github pages to serve my static files.

For a github user of linus and project linux in a folder _downloads. Point esky to the following: https://github.com/Linus/Linux/tree/gh-pages/_downloads`
