Overview

This issue proposes a deployment plan for the CodeStorm-Hub.github.io repository using GitHub Pages. The plan outlines the necessary steps, prerequisites, and architectural considerations to ensure a smooth and reliable deployment process.

Architecture Summary

  • Repository Type: Static site (likely Jekyll, HTML/CSS/JS, or similar), hosted via GitHub Pages.
  • Branch for Deployment: Typically main or gh-pages.
  • Site Content: Includes documentation and static web assets.
  • Configuration: Deployment and site configuration managed by _config.yml or repository settings.

Deployment Plan

  1. Review Current Codebase:

    • Ensure that all site source files (HTML, CSS, JS, docs) are organized and up-to-date.
    • Check for the presence of a configuration file (e.g., _config.yml for Jekyll or appropriate settings for other static generators).
  2. Setup GitHub Pages:

    • Navigate to repository settings.
    • Enable GitHub Pages and select the appropriate branch and folder (usually /root or /docs).
    • If using a custom domain, set the CNAME file and configure DNS settings.
  3. Test Locally (if applicable):

    • Build the site locally using Jekyll or the relevant static site generator to catch errors before deploying.
  4. Push Changes to Deployment Branch:

    • Commit and push all site files and configuration to the selected deployment branch.
    • Verify that the deployment action (if any) runs successfully.
  5. Verify Deployment:

    • Access the published GitHub Pages URL to ensure the site renders correctly.
    • Check for broken links, missing assets, or misconfigurations.
  6. Document Deployment Process:

    • Update or create a README.md section describing the deployment workflow for contributors.

Next Steps

  • Assign responsibilities for each deployment task.
  • Schedule regular reviews to keep documentation and deployment configurations up-to-date.

This plan provides a foundation for deploying and maintaining the CodeStorm-Hub.github.io site via GitHub Pages. Further customization may be required based on the repository’s specific frameworks or requirements.
