I'm working on a personal web project, I want to host all files on personal CDN like "cdn.domain.com" is there any way to do it or script available?

Use bunnycdn or stackpath, all you have to do is create the subdomain you want with domain registrar and forward it to either one of those I have mentioned earlier.

if you insist on doing all the work, you can check this tutorial:

or this one:

I know how frustration it is when you try to open a web page and it takes 10-15 seconds to load, so when you own a website its very much understandable

But I suggest going with an external CDN.

Look for statically.io -this one is free. Again when I say free you still have to pay for hosting related costs. You basically can run your own cdn with statically.io docker images etc, it is open source, you can also use their's for free. But the question remains if you need support, you are on your own, with the paid cdn you also get support if you need it.

which framework do you use?

setup sub-domain etc is the same for custom code. you just need to implement the super cache section in your code/framework.

I'm creating a website like "zippyshare"
Language: HTML - CSS - PHP

So basically I want all uploaded files moved to CDN for direct download

The setup of a fully self-hosted CDN is complicated and requires decent overall knowledge. But yup, that's the only way if you want to store download files.
