No way to get from a page to its source on GitHub #43

Description

@pushpam2404

Context

Somebody spotting a typo has to work out which file it is in and navigate there by hand. Most documentation sites put an "edit this page" link in the footer, which turns a typo into a thirty-second pull request.

What to change

Files: All seven .html files

Requirements:

  • Add an Edit this page on GitHub link to the footer of every page
  • Point it at the blob URL for that specific file on main
  • The link must be correct per page — not all pointing at index.html
  • Keep it visually quiet; it is a utility link, not a call to action

Acceptance criteria

  • All seven pages have the link
  • Each points at its own file and opens the right one
  • Works in both themes
  • The internal-link check still passes

How to verify locally

python3 -m http.server 8000

Then open http://localhost:8000.

Difficulty

Beginner. Repetitive across seven files — check each URL individually.
