Instead of hosting my Shiny App on shinyapps.io, is there a way I can host it on github for free with unlimited hours?

If so, does anyone have resources to help me do this?

I really want to avoid paying $100/month for unlimited hours and just host my shiny app on github instead. The ultimate goal is to add a link to my shiny app on my website built in R (rmarkdown::render_site()). Thanks!

shiny r github

I don't know of any way of hosting a shinny app for free that allows unlimited hours, as Dean Attal said in the comments Digital ocean is a good option but there are other option Vultr gives more RAM for the same cost, also you can try with any VPS provider in Lowendstock are the cheapest VPS.

This article explain how to put a shinny server on a VPS.
