CLAUDE.md — GitHub Pages Public Deployment

Project Overview

• Jekyll static site, publicly hosted on GitHub Pages.
• This is a user site (repo adityavarma1234.github.io), so it is served at the domain root — not under a /reponame/ subpath.
• Production Target URL: https://adityavarma1234.github.io/

Build & Development Commands

• Install dependencies: bundle install
• Local dev server: bundle exec jekyll serve (serves at http://localhost:4000)
• Build site: bundle exec jekyll build (outputs to _site/)

PATHING GUIDELINES

Because this is a user/organization GitHub Pages site, it is served from the domain root, so root-relative paths are correct and required:

1. Use root-absolute paths: /css/main.css, /about, /assets/foo.jpg, etc. These resolve correctly since the site lives at the domain root.
2. Do not prefix paths with a repo name or use a <base> tag — that guidance only applies to project pages (repos named something other than <user>.github.io), which is not the case here.

Notes

• No client-side router is used — this is server-rendered static HTML from Jekyll, so there is no SPA routing/refresh concern to account for.
