Why GitHub hosting a .NET app is not working - github

I was told a few days back GitHub will let you deploy a free (basic) website.
My first attempt with an HTML, CSS, Javascript website was successful.
However, When I tried to deploy a simple test ASP.NET, even though there was no error, the website was not showing at all.
Does GitHub let you deploy a test .NET website? Any feedback is appreciated.

No, it does not. GitHub Pages is designed for static websites; that is, websites with only static HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. There is no support for any backend whatever.
If you want to host a service with a backend component, you'll need to find other options.

Hugo site doesn't deploy to custom domain

I recently created a personal blog site with custom theme using HUGO (source). It deploys on netlify (link) perfectly. But I wanted to publish it on my own domain (mydomain.xyz/pen). I already have a portfolio on mydomain.xyz, therefore I want to publish on a subdomain (/pen).
I tried using github pages for that but it is showing weird result without any theme (just raw HTML).
Can someone tell me how can I resolve this issue? If necessary, I can also publish using netlify but on my own custom domain.
It sounds like the links to your static files (CSS, JS, etc.) are broken, and so the CSS isn't getting loaded. Are you setting the baseURL configuration option correctly? If this is set to the root of your domain (https://mydomain.xyz) instead of the subpage (https://mydomain.xyz/pen) then this could lead to the links being broken.
If that doesn't work, then let us know what theme you are using, and let us see your configuration file (with any sensitive info redacted). This will enable us to check if there is a problem in how your theme is displaying the static content, or whether there are any other issues with your config file that are causing the links to break.

block gadgets in google apps for education

One of the schools I support want to start teaching basic web design to their students, and would like to use google sites to do so. We need to be able to block google gadgets from the sites so that there is no risk of inappropriate content being shown to the students. Previously this could be done with domain gadget directory manager but from what I understand this stopped working when https got switched on for everything. All the places I have looked predate the https change and no longer seem to work. Does anyone have any ideas?
There is an utility called google feedserver
PrivateGadgetAdministratorsGuide
describes how to tweak http/https:
What you can do is to copy the body of XML and change http:// links to
.js files to https:// and then host this file somewhere.

Putting HTML file on Heroku for facebook use

I am trying to use Heroku to host a few html pages for my facebook app.
The problem is i am not sure how i put the files on my Heroku and then get the link to the web html pages to use.
Could you anyone tell me how to do this?
Heroku is designed to host apps and is really not built to host single static pages. It's possible to do: Heroku lists the following for creating a simple rack site: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/static-sites-ruby.
But to be honest I'd have to say there's probably better places to host a page, like creating a free blog on http://www.wordpress.com and using that.

scrape website for iphone/mobile web app output

All,
I have an existing website, that uses a CMS. There are no modules that we like or seem fit
for IPhone/Android/Windows Mobile Safari/Chrome/IE website display available for the CMS.
Is there any open-source project out there that can scrape a html site output for mobile browsers on the fly, where minimal coding is required, and little or no changes required to the original logic?
eg. apache/CMS -> converter -> iphone/android/windows phone.
Thanks in advance for your comments.

Ad CMS to an existing website

I am researching integrating CMS into an already existing website.
I would like to set up certain pages to be editable by co-workers where they can upload/edit content via an online form.
I am however, restricted in that I cannot use PHP(i know, lame!) and I don't have ftp access to this server. I edit the html files on a mirror site and they get uploaded to the webserver by my supervisor.
I would like to use a CMS similar to CushyCMS. Is there a cms service or code that I can put into my html files that would enable my co-workers to edit their pages?
Thank you for your help!
is not possible, you need to use a technology that support server side stuff like PHP, ASP, JSP, asp.net...
If you don't have direct access to the web site is impossible to do something like that.
An easy way was to install a normal CMS like joomla, wordpress, or many others and that designing the theme same as the existing one.
