How I Created QuanticDev.com Using GitHub Pages

I have recently published quanticdev.com using only GitHub Pages and markdown and decided to create a guide to preserve this knowledge in the form of a video&#x2F;article so I can reuse it in my future projects. GitHub Pages is a free and a pretty good hosting service. It is an add-on for regular GitHub repositories, and you can host your website as well as code and other things in one repo, which is pretty good. I must warn that GitHub Pages is intended for techies. If you want something much simpler, go with Google Sites, or Blogger.com, or WordPress. In the first part of this video&#x2F;article, I will discuss the strengths and weaknesses of GitHub Pages. In the second part, I will deploy a brand-new website using GitHub Pages and simple markdown. Everything will be done through GitHub&#x27;s UI and online code editor. I will also demonstrate a sample React website hosted on GitHub Pages.<p>* Video Tutorial: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=jPhmR3TiGq8" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=jPhmR3TiGq8</a><p>* Article: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;quanticdev.com&#x2F;articles&#x2F;website-with-github-pages" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;quanticdev.com&#x2F;articles&#x2F;website-with-github-pages</a> (same as above)<p>Outline of this video&#x2F;article:<p><pre><code> * QuanticDev.com Intro * Why GitHub Pages * Advantages * Disadvantages * Alternatives * GitHub Pages Setup &amp; How I Created quanticdev.com * My Recommendations * Conclusion </code></pre> Free website hosting resources:<p>* GitHub Pages (for techies): <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;pages.github.com" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;pages.github.com</a><p><pre><code> * Supports Jekyll: https:&#x2F;&#x2F;jekyllrb.com * Supports Static HTML + CSS + JavaScript * Supports React and others: https:&#x2F;&#x2F;create-react-app.dev&#x2F;docs&#x2F;deployment&#x2F;#github-pages </code></pre> * Google Sites (non-techies): <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;sites.google.com" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;sites.google.com</a><p>* Alternatives for Bloggers<p><pre><code> * Blogger (basic): https:&#x2F;&#x2F;blogger.com * WordPress (more advanced): https:&#x2F;&#x2F;wordpress.com </code></pre> * Alternatives for Programmers<p><pre><code> * Heroku: https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.heroku.com * Firebase: https:&#x2F;&#x2F;firebase.google.com</code></pre>
