Description

Session Goal

The primary goal of this session was to configure and deploy a Docusaurus site on GitHub Pages, ensuring that the documentation is served from the root and the deployment process is smooth and error-free.

Key Activities

• Configured Docusaurus to serve documentation from the root directory, preventing 404 errors by activating ‘Docs-only’ mode and defining the homepage.
• Implemented an orange-brown color scheme for the Docusaurus site, adjusting CSS for both light and dark themes.
• Proposed initial structure for the Atlas de Pobreza project page, including navigation and thematic axes.
• Developed a detailed deployment guide for Docusaurus on GitHub Pages, including configuration checks, script additions, remote setup, and deployment commands.
• Resolved Git pull errors by checking and adjusting remote settings and branches.
• Addressed broken link errors by modifying the docusaurus.config.js file.
• Diagnosed and corrected deployment errors related to incorrect project name configuration in docusaurus.config.js.

Achievements

• Successfully configured and deployed the Docusaurus site to GitHub Pages.
• Established a clear and structured deployment process, including branch management and configuration settings.
• Enhanced the visual aesthetics of the site with a new color scheme.
