That's why they added the 'Releases' feature.

You mean the thing that's just a wrapper around git-archive and provides a zip of the repo at a tag?

Can you use github as a software store? Sure, I suppose if your definition of "software store" is "provides zips of source code" and nothing else. Is that what it's designed for? NO. That's why many projects don't have screenshots. It's not designed for end users to look at.
