Creating a website can be daunting, especially if you’re new to web development. Fortunately, tools are available that make the process easier and more accessible. One of these tools is Github, a platform for hosting and sharing code that has become a popular choice for hosting websites. In this blog post, we’ll guide you through the process of creating your own website on the GitHub server. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced developer, this post will provide the information you need to get started. So let’s dive in!

1. Create a new repository:
   • Go to your GitHub account and create a new repository.
   • Name the repository in the following format: <username>.github.io (replace <username> with your GitHub username).
2. Create an index.html file:
   • Create a new file called index.html in the root of your repository.
   • Add some basic HTML code to this file.

3. Commit and push your changes:
   • Add the index.html file to your repository using the git add command.
   • Commit your changes using git commit -m “Initial commit”.
   • Push your changes to the remote repository using git push origin main.
4. Enable GitHub Pages:

   • Go to the “Settings” tab of your repository.
