What is GitZip?
GitZip is a Firefox add-on designed for GitHub users. It allows you to conveniently download individual directories and files from any GitHub repository. Instead of downloading the whole project, you can save time and storage by choosing what you need. With GitZip, checking and downloading specific project elements becomes simple, intuitive, and efficient. GitZip also provides access tokens to upgrade the rate limit for power users and supports both dark and light theme options.
