GitHub Pages publishes static websites from a GitHub repository through a publicly reachable GitHub domain.
GitHub developed Pages from the idea of serving project documentation and personal websites directly from versioned repository content. The service launched in 2008 and later gained automated builds and custom-domain support.
A source from a branch or folder is turned into static files by a build, often Jekyll or a custom action. GitHub serves those files through a CDN; CNAME, HTTPS, and access settings determine the reachable address.
A branch, folder, or generated output supplies the website files.
Jekyll or a custom workflow turns sources into static pages.
GitHub serves the output with domain, HTTPS, and access rules.
GitHub Pages fits documentation, project sites, and small static presences. Dynamic server logic, secrets, and large application backends belong in separate services; build checks and domain protection remain important.
