But then, you want to include your README on your static website, for instance in a portfolio or just to have a GitHub-independent homepage. You also want more control on the layout and theme than GitHub has to offer, and perhaps even privacy-preserving analytics. This is a common question and there are options based on ajax or on one GitHub Pages website per repository.

GitHub prohibits embedding arbitrary scripts for security reason. But what if you want to embed an asciinema player on your project homepage, so that users can play the asciicast as they would a standard video? You can have a placeholder with the link on GitHub as asciinema documentation advises and then use RISS to replace it with the full player on your website. You will find how to do that in the documentation. Plus, here is an example README this one doing this (and the corresponding website, look for the asciicast that autoplays).
