Frequent inability to access cdn.jsdelivr.net cause rendering issues

[z-Fng]

Description

I often cannot access cdn.jsdelivr.net. I've tried switching DNS servers, but that didn't work either. As a result, even though I can open scoop.sh, it often shows up incorrectly.

• Failed to fetch https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/bootstrap-dark-5@1.1.3/dist/css/bootstrap-nightshade.min.css

• Failed to fetch 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/ScoopInstaller/Scoop/buckets.json' (Relates to [Bug] Bucket name not displayed correctly #49)

Possible Solutions

I was wondering whether it would be possible to record the official bucket name in the index when retrieving the official bucket from the indexer; that way, there would be no need to fetch buckets.json on the client side. Furthermore, this would ensure that the index is updated promptly even if there are changes to buckets.json. If this is feasible, I can submit a PR for it.

As for bootstrap-nightshade.min.css, could it be stored statically within the project?

Maybe the easiest solution is to switch from jsDelivr to another CDN, or to use GitHub only. It should solve all your issues at once. Do you have any recommendations?

I agree with the 'GitHub-only' approach; I can't think of a better alternative for now. This means we'll need to host bootstrap-nightshade.min.css locally? Or is it acceptable to use Bootstrap's native dark mode? As for buckets.json, I still believe the indexer should handle the fetching so that the frontend can be entirely decoupled from this file.

Update: I am no longer able to reproduce this issue these days. It likely stemmed from my ISP/network provider.

From my side, this issue can be closed. I'll leave it to your discretion whether the recommendation to avoid cdn.jsdelivr.net is still necessary.
