How to Create a Free Web Page Using GitHub Pages
This is the first of two articles in which I will demonstrate how I used AI with a vibe-coding methodology to generate code for a web page that I can host for free in the Cloud. The reason was straightforward: over the years, I have written hundreds of articles and blog posts for Virtualization & Cloud Review and other publications, but I have never had a central location for them.
In hindsight, actually, the above is the use case for this article. The actual impetus for these articles was fourfold: I wanted to see how easily and effectively it was to get a free web page up and running, become familiar with running GitHub locally, and use the Vibe coding methodology and AI to generate code. In these articles, I will show you how to do the same.
I broke this project down into the following steps: locating a site to host a static web page, creating a JSON list of my articles, and using AI to generate the web page.
Below, I will show you how I did this. Hopefully, it will help you eliminate many of the missteps and blind alleys I encountered along the way. Although I doubt that you will want to use it for the same purpose I did, I think you will find the techniques and tools I used to create my free cloud-based,…
