Publishing this Website
Publishing this website was a straight-forward and well worth it task. By publishing this website, billions can access it if they so please (though GitHub would probably ban me if they did). GitHub is a platform that allows for code sharing among other things such as publishing of an application for people to download. It is often seen as your one-stop-shop for all things open source, though there does exist other options such as GitLab.
With GitHub, you are allowed to publish your website via their “GitHub Pages” feature; you can even view mine here!
Buying my Domain
Buying my domain was simple, I used Porkbun to purchase a domain that would suit my website, and it is also what I used to ensure that my DNS records were correct so that I could direct my github.io link and my website contents to my desired domain. There are many places to purchase a domain, though, and the most common ones would be Namecheap, Name.com, and GoDaddy.
