Switching GitHub Pages deployment from Classic to Actions-based deployment GitHub has introduced another method to deploy your GitHub Pages website from the classic method to the modern deployment method from your GitHub Actions workflow. This avoids having to select a dedicated branch (usually called gh-pages) from your repository, which is separate from all your branches, including the main one. This removes a huge overhead in having to maintain a separate branch dedicated for GitHub Pages files, which are static files that contain HTML, CSS, JS, and other website-related files.

Switching GitHub Pages deployment method from classic to modern method demonstrated with Textify.
