If you want to use this theme to host a website that will be available at `https://YOURUSERNAME.github.io`, then you do not need to read this section. That is called a User Page, you can only have one User Page in your GitHub account, and it is what you get by default when forking this project.

If you want to use this theme to create a website for a particular repository, it will be available at `https://YOURUSERNAME.github.io/REPONAME`, and that is called a [Project Page](https://help.github.com/articles/user-organization-and-project-pages/). You can have a Project Page for each repository you have on GitHub. If you want to use this theme to create a website for a particular repository, it will be available at `https://YOURUSERNAME.github.io/PROJECTNAME`, and that is called a [Project Page](https://help.github.com/articles/user-organization-and-project-pages/). You can have a Project Page for any repository you have on GitHub.
There are two important point to note, assuming your project website will be served under `gh-pages` branch (check [Github Page official documentation](https://help.github.com/en/articles/configuring-a-publishing-source-for-github-pages) for usable source): **When using this theme for a Project Page, by default your website will be served from the `gh-pages` branch**, so you must take the following steps:
1. When copying files from this repository, **only copy from `master` branch** of this theme, which is where all my new features and work go into. After copying stuff to `gh-pages` branch under your project... 1. [Delete the existing `gh-pages` branch](https://help.github.com/en/articles/creating-and-deleting-branches-within-your-repository#deleting-a-branch)
2. Adjust all configurations and templates according to your taste, but in particular, there is no need to set `url` and `baseurl` inside `_config.yml`. Github will fill in the variables for you. Just push the changes and enjoy! 2. [Create a new branch named `gh-pages` from the `master` branch](https://help.github.com/en/articles/creating-and-deleting-branches-within-your-repository#creating-a-branch)
Alternatively, instead of the above two steps, you can opt to use the `master` branch instead of `gh-pages` branch as your website's source by choosing that option in the main Settings page.
