Hello everyone! I am Nirupamvas and today I am going to tell you about how you can use GitHub-Pages to host your static web pages. So lets get started.
Before we dig in you need to know little bit about GitHub and GitHub-Pages
GitHub :
GitHub is a code hosting platform for version control and collaboration. It lets you and others work together on projects from anywhere. People from different parts of the world upload here projects and contribute to opensource and many opensource projects are in GitHub.GitHub-Pages :
GitHub Pages is GitHub's answer to project pages, and it allows you to serve any static website straight from your repository. Since GitHub pages support custom domains, you can host a static website on GitHub pages free of charge, with deploys straight from Git.
1) Create a Git-Hub account:
Go to Git-Hub website and fill the details and create an account.
After creating you will redirected to your dashboard or just sign in with your credentials.
2) Create a Repository
Click on create repository
Give the repository name, description. If you want others to see your repositories check public or else check private, if you want to describe or need to say how to work with it then include Readme.
Click on create Repository
3) Uploading Files
For uploading files there are 2 ways one is using Git-CLI and other one is using native method. I will be using native method that's so simple.
Click on the upload file section then you will able to see the following screen.
Here you can drag and drop your files or click on upload and select files.
After uploading all of your files click on commit changes.
