Hi,
First, very nice article you wrote at:
https://www.docslikecode.com/articles/github-pages-python-sphinx

Is it possible to see web-generated docs in action i.e. sphinx generated pages on the github pages website on:
https://annegentle.github.io/create-demo

The github action for your last merge commit 80a8f69 finishes successfully on the master branch with a message:
Your website is ready at https://annegentle.github.io/create-demo

But when I try to access the URL, I get 404 error.

Recap: why web-page on github pages i.e. https://annegentle.github.io/create-demo is not available?

Thanks for bringing this Issue to my attention! Investigating now... and will update master default branch name to main while I'm at it.

Okay, looks like I'll need to update to use GitHub actions, and I'll go through this post: https://tech.michaelaltfield.net/2020/07/18/sphinx-rtd-github-pages-1/ to fix this 404 error. I'll post here when I get it working again.

Interestingly enough, I got this thing working at one of my repos at https://github.com/PabloAlexis611/DocumentationProject/.
You can see the GitHub Pages deployments at https://github.com/PabloAlexis611/DocumentationProject/deployments.

I didn't have to use GitHub's actions for it (at least not directly, afaik). 🤔

Should be live at https://pabloalexis611.github.io/DocumentationProject/index.html

Interesting! I got it working again using GitHub actions, but now I'm wondering if that was the fix or simply switching the branch it builds from. I might switch the build branch again and see if it still works. Thanks for letting me know.
