Hey everyone,
Does anyone have a good tutorial on how to use the github pages app? I have a background in basic git usage, but unsure how to build and deploy a Jekyll website.
Thanks for any help!Respectfully,
Will

We have only a bit of usage information for the app at https://cloudron.io/documentation/apps/githubpages/
The app itself was built by the Cloudron team and tries to be close to Github's offering in that area.

I'm looking for more of a step by step, I've never worked with Jekyll, or GitHub for site hosting. My confusion comes from where to even start. Maybe something like:
- Create new git repo in gitlab
- Load Jekyll plugin from this list? (No clue how that works)
- Clone to local desktop
- Push to pages app via command: git remote add page https://<app.example.com>/_git/page
Basically hand holding hahahahaha
Thanks for the link!

@will If you already have a basic site setup (using HTML) just push that to the ghpages app, no need for jekyll.
Otherwise see https://cloudron.io/documentation/apps/githubpages/
If you want, maybe easier - You can upload static HTML to the LAMP app too. under the /app/data/public folder.
