This video lecture offers students a live demo that teaches them to publish web content by using GitHub Pages. It starts by introducing the GitHub Pages service in general, and demonstrating how it can be used to publish any HTML-based web site on the internet. Afterwards, the lecture introduces a template Wout developed for students of the Digitizing Cultural Heritage Materials (DCHM) course, who are preparing a (local or online) presentation website for their digitisation projects. The lecture ends by showing how the template might be expanded by pointing towards Wout's DIY-frankensTEIn repository, a more elaborate version of the DCHM-template that incorporates some (adapted) materials and functionalities that were based on the work done by the team behind the Shelley-Godwin Archive.
The video lecture starts from the assumption that the viewer has a basic understanding of git and GitHub, and is familiar with the basic terminology for its commonly used commands, such as `commit`, `push`, `pull`, etc. It also builds on some previous lectures in the course, on topics like Digital Scholarly Editing, and Metadata. To brush up your skills in this regard, feel free to turn to the following teaching materials:
A more concise list of the steps students would need to take to get started using the DCHM-template (and GitHub Pages) can be found on the repository's wiki.
Finally, at the end of the video, the lecture also mentions that both the DCHM-tempalte and DIY-frankensTEIn GitHub repositories contain the XSLT transformation scenarios that have been used to automatically generate the HTML-pages (inside the `docs` directory) from a single TEI-XML transcript (in the `collection` directory). This video does not explain how to use those transformation scenarios, but for those who already know the basics of XSLT, and who would like to transform their own TEI-XML transcripts into HTML-pages, a concise step-by-step guide on how to set this up in oXygen can also be found in the DCHM-template's wiki.
