Making a website with academicpages

• Go to Acadmic pages (example jekyll), and fork the repository!
• Go to your forked version of the repository. Go to Settings, and then to Pages (currently under the section Code and automation).
• Under Build and deployment select the source: Build from a branch. And in Branch select master, and /root and hit save.
• The page will take some time to build. If you go on the repository’s main page, there will be an orange dot next to the commit hash. When the page is ready, this will change to a green checkmark.
• If you go the settings page where you set up the things above, you should see the URL to the webpage. This URL will typicall be: https://<yourgithubname>.github.io/<reponame, i.e. academicpages>/.
• If you want to make a webpage with the URL https://<yourgithubname>.github.io/, you have to create a repository called <yourgithubname>.github.io.
• You can also set up a custom domain for this page. See this article to find out how.
