Codesandbox-client: Rawgit is closing down
馃悰 bug report
Description of the problem
There are some links on rawgit, which will be closed down (see main page). These should be replaced with regular GitHub links and forcing the mime type somehow; or with an alternative like https://raw.githack.com
How has this issue affected you? What are you trying to accomplish?
Not yet, but there's 5 places rawgit is referenced in the code.
Link to sandbox: link (optional)

Good one. We should either create a mime type proxy ourselves or we should use another service. raw.githack.com looks very similar to rawgit. We'd need to check how reliable they are with hosting, rawgit was really good.

Note that rawgit is open source, so that's an option to run it on codesandbox' servers instead :) https://github.com/rgrove/rawgit

Closing this, since we switched to raw.githack.com.
