Repository structure

• The main branch contains the website source code
• The gh-pages branch stores the built website

Updating the website

A Github Action will automatically rebuild the website when changes are pushed to the repository. The major contents of the website are in src/App.tsx.

The website may also manually be built by checking out the repo, and doing a

yarn install
npm run deploy

Then, to view the webpage, do

npm run preview

and open http://localhost:4173/ in your browser.

If you want to upgrade dependencies (e.g. to patch security issues), try a

yarn upgrade
