About gists

A gist is a lightweight home for standalone files — snippets, scratch notes, or one-off configuration. Each gist can hold multiple files and keeps full revision history.

Good to know

Gists are standalone — they aren't attached to any repository.
Private gists aren't listed or searchable, but anyone with the link can view them.
A file's extension picks its syntax highlighting and sort order, so name files precisely.
