GitHub Pages

I published my first two web sites with GithHub Pages.

Quarto has a tutorial about publishing Quarto sites to GitHub Pages. This worked well.

I was a little confused by the different options: docs folder, publish command, GitHub Actions.

The quarto publish command worked well for the learning diary page. I like that you can publish a page with a command instead of deploying the page with every GitHub push.

For the data snippets page I used the GitHub Actions approach. In the project, I have a static page in a subfolder with a Quarto based single index page. So neither the Quarto nor the default GitHub Pages workflow to publish the page seemed to fit well. In the GitHub Actions approach I chose, the page is deployed with every GitHub push.
