In addition, you can serve it over HTTPS and make sure that it is fast and SEO-ready. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMastering GitHub Pages delves into static (and dynamic) websites as well as their advantages and disadvantages. Static websites tend to be incredibly fast since they have no processing time for databases and other stuff. Additionally, because you are committing a code base of static assets to a Git repository, the rolling back of changes is simply an issue involving reversion to a commit that was made previously. So backups are a mere git push away, and you are basically serving your entire website from a cache. This means that your server will never need to process a request again. This book helps you master the art of static site generation in no time. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFurthermore, \u003ci\u003eMastering GitHub Pages \u003c\/i\u003ealso discusses in great length Jekyll, a popular static site generator. When working with Jekyll, all you do is give it liquid templates as well as Markdown content, and it is adept at combining them both into a static website. It requires no-on-the-fly processing, and your blog will display at a significantly faster speed. This workflow proves useful for GitHub Pages because they tend to support the Jekyll builds. As such, your blog posts can be contributed using pull requests, and all your content gets stored within version control. Non-developers could also contribute posts in Markdown.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMastering GitHub Pages is an immensely useful book that all developers can use for the creation of websites on the free GitHub Pages platform.
