Deployment

Deploy your Zer0-Mistakes Jekyll site to various hosting platforms.

Hosting Options

Platform	Pros	Cons
GitHub Pages	Free, automatic deploys, built-in CI	Limited plugins, whitelist only
Netlify	Free tier, custom headers, forms	Requires separate account
Vercel	Fast CDN, serverless functions	Jekyll not primary focus
Self-hosted	Full control	Requires server management

Guides in This Section

• GitHub Pages — Deploy to GitHub’s free hosting
• Netlify — Deploy with custom headers and redirects
• Custom Domain — Set up your own domain name

Quick Deploy

GitHub Pages (Fastest)

1. Push your site to a GitHub repository
2. Go to Settings → Pages
3. Select your branch (usually main)
4. Site deploys automatically

Netlify (Most Features)

1. Connect your GitHub repository to Netlify
2. Set build command: jekyll build
3. Set publish directory: _site
4. Deploy triggers on every push

Environment Configuration

The theme uses dual configuration for different environments:

File	Purpose
_config.yml	Production settings
_config_dev.yml	Development overrides

In production, ensure:

• posthog.enabled: true (if using analytics)
• url matches your domain
• baseurl is set correctly for subpaths
