How can I host a javascript for use in Webflow since the tutorial I found on the forum that uses Github is no longer available?

TL;DR

To host a JavaScript file for use in Webflow, there are several alternatives you can consider since the previous tutorial using GitHub is no longer available.

​

1. Use Webflow's own custom code hosting: Webflow allows you to host custom code directly within the Designer. Here's how you can do it:

​

   - Go to your Webflow project and navigate to the Project Settings.

   - In the Project Settings, click on the Custom Code tab.

   - Inside the Custom Code section, you'll find areas to add code snippets. You can add your JavaScript code directly to the `<head>` or `<body>` sections.

   - Remember to wrap your JavaScript code within `<script>` tags.

​

   This method allows you to host your JavaScript code directly within the Webflow platform, eliminating the need for external hosting services.

​

2. Utilize a third-party hosting service: If you prefer to host your JavaScript files externally, there are numerous hosting services available. Some popular options include:

​

   - Netlify: Netlify provides free hosting for static websites and supports JavaScript files. You can easily drag and drop your JavaScript file into the hosting platform and obtain the hosted URL to use in Webflow.

   - Vercel: Similar to Netlify, Vercel offers free static site hosting with support for JavaScript. You can upload your JavaScript file to Vercel and obtain the URL for use in Webflow.

   - Firebase Hosting: Firebase Hosting is a scalable hosting service offered by Google. It allows you to host static files, including JavaScript. With the Firebase CLI, you can easily deploy your JavaScript file and use the generated URL in Webflow.

​

   These third-party hosting services provide more flexibility and customization options but require additional setup compared to Webflow's integrated custom code hosting.

​

Remember to reference the hosted JavaScript file correctly in your Webflow project. You can incorporate the script by adding it in the Project Settings or directly within a specific page's custom code section.
