Week 8 – Getting a URL for your project
Uploading your work to Github
BEFORE YOU DO THIS CHECK:
Are all of your images/videos/assets as small as possible? Aim for less than 5mb.
Is your site working locally?
Are all of your file names lowercase without any spaces?
If yes then move on, if no fix it!
Step 1
Sign up for a free a
github
account and verify your e-mail address.
Step 2
Create a new repository by navigating to
“repositories”
and then pressing
“New”
Name your repository the name of your project and remember:
All lowercase
No spaces
Step 3
Drag your index.html and your assets folder into this screen
(or
select
“choose
your files”).
Write a short commit message, for example
“First
commit”
yours will have an
“assets’
folder, mine does not!
Step 4 – Getting a URL/Activating GitHub Pages
Navigate to
“Settings”
in your repository
Scroll down to where it says
“GitHub
pages”
Change the source to your master branch from the dropdown
It will give you a URL that should point you to your index.html file!
