My site is up and running. Moving forwards, what is the best way to publish ongoing changes? Do I " npm run deploy" for every update? If so, I see on the github page commits and pull request for the gh-page branch. Do I NEED to address those ? Beacuse there isn't another comperable gh-pages branch to compare and reconcile with. I just leave it?

Thanks

I have the same question - should I commit to main/master, checkout gh-branch, then deploy? Commit to main and then pull request?

Hi @nssensalo and @dj-lee1, thanks for asking this question. The way I do it is to store my source code on the master or main branch (like with any other repository); and then, separately, whenever I want to update the deployed site, run $ npm run deploy.

At least, that is how I used to do it. Nowadays (on my real, work projects), I use GitHub Actions with something like this to build and deploy the app for me whenever I create a new Release on GitHub.
