With GitHub Pages, we can host some free websites for personal use. This is really great as we mostly already use GitHub to store our code and assets for websites.

In the past few weeks, I have been busy on scaling up my tools and the backend hosting of the tools. For the last year, I used multiple Static Web Apps on Azure for this, but this took a lot of time administering and creating them.
