When I go to http://pages.github.com/ http://pages.github.com/, I see absolutely no way to make a Github Page. How do you set one up?
EDIT: I know I could probably find the info in an FAQ, if I needed to. My point is that the images on that page seem to show a nice wysiwyg online editor for creating and publishing pages. I'm looking for a big call to action button that takes me there, similar to how easy it is to publish to https://gist.github.com/ https://gist.github.com/.

- lobster_johnson 14y agoYou create a repo named username.github.io (eg., pkamb.github.io). Put static files in it, and they will become available automatically. More information here: https://help.github.com/categories/20/articles https://help.github.com/categories/20/articles

- pkamb 14y agoDoesn't it seem kind of crazy that you have to sort through an FAQ to get started? Why isn't there a big call to action button that says "Create a Page"?
- Lockyy 14y agoI agree. However this is pretty much it for how to do it. It is quite easy to get started, jekyll is very simple.
- CamperBob2 14y agoBecause that just results in the creation, and subsequent abandonment, of a lot of junk pages?
- kisielk 14y agoAs opposed to the "New repository" button on the github.com front page...
- manojlds 14y agoProject pages should come from a project repo. Why would you expect to go to a page and expect to be able to create from there? Do you have a repo / project on Github? Then you would have figured it out on your own.
- cobychapple 14y agoThere's also an "automatic page generator" button if you go to your repository settings, where you can even pick from pre-designed themes :)
