I had an idea for cloud storage

[Burdened]

So, I recently got foam.cloud, so I was thinking, I could create some cloud storage.

Main problem is that I don't got no storage, so what I was thinking that I could utilize github's API, create a new repo, and create a panel on the frontend for the users, and when they upload the file it goes through github's repo and can be utilized as storage on the panel once it refreshes, and can be used through a shortned link (like s.foam.cloud/link/<file>)
panel would be hosted on my.foam.cloud. I've read github's repo and it doesn't seem to hard to create the new repo and utilize it.

this is something i kind of just thought up of now, let me know of your opinions (even if its hillarious and stupid to you)

Interesting, thanks, I always thought that github could be used for storage, but I was just curious ;P, thanks for letting me know either way.
