github without local repository

I just created an account with github. Can I upload my project without local repository and without local git commandline and without local github desktop?

I am looking for something similar to ftp that can directly upload my project into the online repository.

Any way to do that?

Yes? Sort of? If you create a repository with the default README you can then use the web interface to add, upload, and edit files.

But I'm not sure why you would do this. It's not how Github is intended to be used and it will be awkward.

Github has a desktop application that help you work with Git.

I'd recommend using git to manage and upload your local files. However, If you really want to you can use the "Upload files" button on github to upload files directly:

Note: you'll have to have at least one file present in your github repo to see this page. If you're creating a project from scratch, and seeing the following page, click the "README" button to create a readme and then you'll have the option of uploading additional files.
