Xget: The Ultimate Open-Source Resource Acceleration Engine

Tired of watching progress bars crawl while cloning GitHub repositories? Frustrated with PyPI installs timing out? Xget delivers HTTP/3-powered acceleration and multi-layer compression to transform your development workflow.

The Universal Bottleneck in Development

Resource download speed impacts every developer’s productivity. Whether you’re:

  • Cloning large Git repositories across continents
  • Downloading Hugging Face models for ML projects
  • Pulling Docker images for Kubernetes deployments
  • Installing packages through various package managers

Traditional solutions require complex configurations or offer limited speed improvements. Xget solves this with intelligent routing and global edge caching – providing immediate speed boosts without configuration headaches.

Why Xget Outperforms Traditional Accelerators

Practical Guide: Accelerating Your Development Workflow

🚀 5-Second Quick Start

Use the public instance https://xget.xi-xu.me with simple URL transformation:

Conversion Formula:
https://original.url → https://xget.xi-xu.me/platform-prefix/path

Real-World Example:

# Original GitHub URL  
- https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/archive/main.zip  

# Xget Accelerated URL  
+ https://xget.xi-xu.me/gh/microsoft/vscode/archive/main.zip

🛠️ Deep Optimization for Development Scenarios

▋ Git Operations at Warp Speed

# Clone repository with acceleration  
git clone https://xget.xi-xu.me/gh/torvalds/linux.git  

# Permanent global configuration  
git config --global url."https://xget.xi-xu.me/gh/".insteadOf "https://github.com/"

▋ Python Development Acceleration

# Single-command acceleration  
pip install numpy -i https://xget.xi-xu.me/pypi/simple/  

# Permanent configuration  
pip config set global.index-url https://xget.xi-xu.me/pypi/simple/

▋ Container Image Acceleration

# Docker configuration  
echo '{ "registry-mirrors": ["https://xget.xi-xu.me/cr/docker"] }' > /etc/docker/daemon.json  

# Direct image pull  
docker pull xget.xi-xu.me/cr/ghcr/nginxinc/nginx-unprivileged:latest

▋ AI Model Loading Optimization

# Hugging Face acceleration  
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModel  

os.environ['HF_ENDPOINT'] = 'https://xget.xi-xu.me/hf'  
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained("microsoft/DialoGPT-medium")

🤖 AI Inference API Acceleration

# Accelerated OpenAI API Call  
from openai import OpenAI  

client = OpenAI(  
    api_key="YOUR_KEY",  
    base_url="https://xget.xi-xu.me/ip/openai/v1"  # Accelerated endpoint  
)  

response = client.chat.completions.create(  
    model="gpt-4",  
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}]  
)
