Statically
APIFree CDN for developers with optimized static asset delivery
Overview
Statically offers RESTful URL-based endpoints to serve static assets (images, CSS, JS, fonts, PDFs) with built-in optimization (resizing, compression, format conversion). It integrates seamlessly with GitHub, GitLab, WordPress, and other sources. Responses are requested static files (e.g., PNG, CSS), while error/metadata responses use JSON. Use cases include accelerating web app performance, reducing origin server load, and optimizing media for mobile without backend modifications.
