How to use Github Pages App?

[will]

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:

1. Create new git repo in gitlab
2. Load Jekyll plugin from this list? (No clue how that works)
3. Clone to local desktop
4. 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.
