Demos

Embed Repo for GitHub lets you showcase GitHub repositories directly on your WordPress website using a customizable Gutenberg block. Create a GitHub portfolio, display open source projects, and organize repository listings with grid controls, masonry layout, pagination, and styling options.

Whether you are a WordPress developer, open source contributor, freelancer, software agency, or technical blogger, this plugin helps you present your GitHub projects in a structured layout without manually creating repository cards.

What Is Embed Repo for GitHub?

Linking out to GitHub sends visitors away from your site. Embed Repo for GitHub lets you display your repositories right inside your posts and pages, so developers, clients, and collaborators can browse your open source work without leaving WordPress.

Show all your repositories, control how many appear per page, and fine-tune every visual detail – columns, gaps, colors, and typography – directly from the block editor sidebar.
