You can also use GitLab for the same thing.
Just chiming in to promote this a bit. GitLab is a well-known open source alternative to GitHub, which actually offers more features than GitHub nowadays.

- lnrdgmz 10y agoAnd Gitlab Pages supports https for custom domains, which Github Pages does not yet support.
- iamnothere 10y agoThere are also several in-progress feature requests related to Let's Encrypt automation, which should make HTTPS much easier. (Right now it's possible to use Let's Encrypt, but you have to manually renew the cert every 90 days.)
- aeharding 10y agoAnd Gitlab Pages supports free CI for building your static HTML assets however you like, upon code push, without cluttering your repo with compiled assets. Run code through Metalsmith? No problem. Run through Jekyll? Can do. Anything that's Dockerized. This is perhaps my favorite distinction between Github and Gitlab pages.
- sytse 10y agoGlad to hear that! Examples for many static sites generators can be found on https://gitlab.com/groups/pages https://gitlab.com/groups/pages
- seanwilson 10y agoDoes GitLab support setting custom response headers (e.g. X-Frame-Options) for static sites? I know GitHub doesn't but Netlify does for paid accounts.
