Deployment
There are several alternatives to building and deploying the site:
build the site with GitHub Actions which pushes the resulting files (the contents of
_site/or../sustain-pages/) to the gh-pages branch. This is the approach that is currently used. See jekyll_build.yml for more details.generate the site locally (more details below) and push the resulting HTML to a Github repository, that GitHub Pages then host;
build the site with travis-ci (with goodies from jekyll-travis) automatically pushing the generated HTML files to a gh-pages branch.
deploy the static website with Jekyll-compatible hosters, such as https://www.netlify.com/, that allow for deployment from the Github repo and publish the website using CDNs. Netlify has a free starter offer.
For option 2) simply clone this repository (master branch), and then run
bundle exec jekyll serve inside the directory. Upload the resulting _site/ (or ../sustain-pages/)
contents to your repository (master branch if uploading as your personal page
(e.g. username.github.io) or gh-pages branch if uploading as a project page
(as for the demo).
For option 3) you will need to set up travis-ci for your personal fork. Briefly all you need then is to change your details in _config.yml so that you can push to your github repo. You will also need to generate a secure key to add to your .travis.yml (you can find more info on how to do it in that file). Also make sure you read the documentation from jekyll-travis. This approach has clear advantages in that you simply push your file changes to GitHub and all the HTML files are generated for you and pushed to gh-pages. Also you get to know if everything is still fine with your site builds. Don't hesitate to contact me if you still have any issues (see below about issue tracking).
