How to serve a custom HTTPS domain on GitHub Pages with CloudFlare: *FREE*, secure and performant by default

Instructions

CloudFlare is an awesome reverse cache proxy and CDN that provides DNS, free HTTPS (TLS) support, best-in-class performance settings (gzip, SDCH, HTTP/2, sane Cache-Control and E-Tag headers, etc.), minification, etc.

  1. Make sure you have registered a domain name.
  2. Sign up for CloudFlare and create an account for your domain.
  3. In your domain registrar's admin panel, point the nameservers to CloudFlare's (refer to this awesome list of links for instructions for various registrars).
  4. From the CloudFlare settings for that domain, enable HTTPS/SSL and set up a Page Rule to force HTTPS redirects. (If you want to get fancy, you can also enable automatic minification for text-based assets [HTML/CSS/JS/SVG/etc.], which is a pretty cool feature if you don't want already have a build step for minification.)

How To Deprecate A Repository on GitHub

A simple checklist for deprecating a repository. See https://github.com/RichardLitt/knowledge/blob/master/how-to-deprecate-a-repository-on-github.md.

Deprecating a project no one uses

  • Change the GitHub description. This is often the first thing people see for the repository, and the first line that people will see if looking at the repository in the Organization view. The most important thing to do is to add the word DEPRECATED at the front of the description. This clearly marks it will not be updated. You can also add an emoji to it. ⛔️ DEPRECATED <former description> makes it pop out a bit more.
  • Add GitHub topics: deprecated, obselete, and archived are all good ones.
  • Edit the title of the README. Remove the current title, and instead write # DEPRECATED.
