About
GitHub Pages is a static website hosting service for content stored in a GitHub repository. A site is published by editing files in the repository and pushing commits; GitHub then serves the generated pages from the repository source.
The service supports user or organization sites and project sites, with options to start from scratch or apply a pre-built theme. The page describes one site per GitHub account or organization and unlimited project sites, along with support for custom domains, Jekyll-based blogging, and standard repository-based publishing workflows.
