View rendered output of a gist?

Question

I'm sure I'm being dim, but is it possible to view the rendered output of a gist?

This is the gist I'm interested in: https://gist.github.com/844752/420cc52eb4910fe8fa2bec9e13daab18b6230503

Where can I see how it actually renders?

Answer 1

rawgit.com provides this service. To use rawgit.com, simply replace the domain of the raw view of the gist or github file you want to view with rawgit.com. For example:

https://gist.githubusercontent.com/mbostock/844752/raw/index.html 

to

https://rawgit.com/mbostock/844752/raw/index.html 

or

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/caffinatedmonkey/Hello-World-PSP/master/main.cpp 

to

https://rawgit.com/caffinatedmonkey/Hello-World-PSP/master/main.cpp 

Answer 2

RawGithub.com will let you render anything on Github, including gists. Two examples:

• https://gist.github.com/mbostock/4341574, and the rendered version
• https://gist.github.com/hemulin/4148842, and the rendered version
