Deployment & GitHub Pages

The site is automatically deployed to GitHub Pages using GitHub Actions:

• On every push to the main branch, a GitHub Actions workflow builds the site and deploys the contents of the dist/ directory to the gh-pages branch.
• GitHub Pages is configured to serve from the gh-pages branch in repository settings.
• No manual deployment steps are required for standard updates—just push to main.
• For details on the deployment workflow, see REQ-010-github-pages-deployment.md.
