- Click on **Actions** tab and **Enable GitHub Actions**; you no need to worry about creating any workflows as everything has already been set for you.
- Make sure the `url` and `baseurl` fields in `_config.yml` are empty.
- Make any other changes to your webpage, commit, and push. This will automatically trigger the **Deploy** action.
- Wait for a few minutes and let the action complete. You can see the progress in the **Actions** tab. If completed successfully, in addition to the `source` branch, your repository should now have a newly built `master` branch.

<details><summary><strong>Manual deployment to GitHub Pages:</strong></summary>
If you need to manually re-deploy your website to GitHub pages, run the deploy script from the root directory of your repository:
```bash
$ ./bin/deploy [--user]
$ ./bin/deploy
```
uses the `master` branch for the source code and deploys the webpage to `gh-pages`.
The optional flag `--user` tells it to deploy to `master` and use `source` for the source code instead.
Using `master` for deployment is a convention for [user and organization pages](https://help.github.com/articles/user-organization-and-project-pages/).
