How to Fix a Leaked API Key — Article Advertisement

A single-page promotional website for my freeCodeCamp article:

How to Fix a Leaked API Key: A Developer’s Guide to Git Security

The website is designed as an interactive cybersecurity-themed advertisement that directs developers to the full article and highlights the importance of protecting API keys in Git repositories.

About

This project serves as a standalone promotional landing page for the article. It uses a developer/cybersecurity visual style to communicate the risks of exposed API keys and encourage readers to learn how to properly respond to a leaked credential.

The page is intentionally contained in a single HTML file so it can be easily hosted as a static website.

Features

  • Single standalone HTML file
  • Cybersecurity-themed visual design
  • Animated interface elements
  • Interactive navigation
  • Responsive layout
  • Article-focused promotional content
  • Direct link to the full freeCodeCamp article
  • No backend or server-side dependencies

Article

What the article covers

The article provides a practical guide to responding to an accidentally exposed API key and discusses Git security practices developers can use to reduce the risk of credentials being committed or exposed.

Running Locally

No build process is required.

Simply open the HTML file in a modern web browser.

For example:

index.html

You can also serve it through a local development server if you prefer.

Deployment

Because this is a static HTML page, it can be hosted using services that support static websites, including GitHub Pages.

If deploying with GitHub Pages, make sure the main HTML file is named:

index.html
