Overview
Linktree is a lightweight, static site that lets you gather all your social media and online presence links in one customizable page. Built with plain HTML and CSS, it requires no server‑side code, making it ideal for quick deployment on GitHub Pages, Netlify, or any static host.
Getting Started
Clone the repository, edit index.html to replace the profile image and link texts, and adjust colors or fonts in style.css. With VS Code’s Live Server you can preview changes instantly. The MIT license lets you freely modify and redistribute the site.
Who Should Use It
Perfect for creators, freelancers, and speakers who need a simple, free alternative to commercial link‑in‑bio services while retaining full control over branding and layout. You can host it on any static web server, and the codebase is small enough to customize even without deep web development experience.
