You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

  1. What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
    Want to understand if it was possible to use Https Service with Github

  2. What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!
    Same as 1.

  3. What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
    Yes, but the API don‘t explain this.

I have see yeaster that Roblox has used Github with the Https Service, but i not understand it. Then if it was really possible, so how to attempt this? And let say i have write a in pure Lua code, that has it own normal Lua functions (as OBJ Loader and others things), so when i will use it in Roblox, do it still was compatible or not more? Thanks for reading:

Be more specific. What are you trying to achieve? Are you trying to pull code from a GitHub repository or use some integration feature that it has? Using HttpService to access third party services and their endpoints is as simple as fulfilling the correct requirements both in HTTP method used and the data you’re passing, so there must be a specific case you’re looking to resolve.

That’s still not specific enough though. Are you trying to pull code from GitHub into Roblox? Yes, that can be done. If you want an example, Quenty’s Nevermore library loader has a piece of code in the README that you can call which fetches the content of the Install file in the repository and runs it. The install script pulls all the files from the repository and inserts them into the DataModel.
