Welcome dear reader. I am your thoughtful scribe Silent-Mobius, also known as Alex M. Schapelle.
It is possible that you have stumble one of my previous letters, dear reader, to which your "like"s and comments are always appreciated.

Today we'll take our first step in regards to create custom private landing page on one of the code management platforms, in our caseGitHub.

While on #OSDC weeklyassignment, of creating static web sites, that has really goodtutorial I was able to deploy them withgithub actions, yet unfortunately it was not clear enough for me, as it took mecountless attempts to implement github static pages with Jekyll themes. Many things such as page custom layouts, custom cascading style sheets or logos areNOT straight forward with this system, despite fact thesite was created

Theoretical

• When setting up github pages, only thing needed is content which you write intoREADME.md file.

Practical

• To configure the page one must set list of files and folders:
  • __config.yml: configuration file for theme and logos
  • __layout: folder where we keep the structure of the static page, usually named asdefault.html, it could be something else, yet I was not brave enough to check it.
  • __include: folder where we can set html pages with special structure to be included in full static page.
    • one must include the page name with{% include page.html%} insidedefault.html file to be included.

Suggestive

@cameronmcnz has really goodvideo in regards to structure and github pages.

Summary

We covered basic task provided at #OSDC, links of good tutorials that can help us with those questions and tasks.
Hope that it has been beneficial to you. Till next time, but until then: Do Try To Have Fun.
