VS Team Services and website portal, in lieu of SharePoint - azure-devops

VSTS cannot link to sharepoint for a portal. The only option is a web site. Is there any documentation as to the requirements for the website?
Thanks

There isn't any requirement for website since TFS/VSTS does not perform any integration with the website. When you click "Show Project Portal..." from "VS\Team", it just open the website URL from browser. So you just need to make sure the website linked can be accessed by your team members.

Depending on your needs, VSTS version control integration can offer a lot.
You can customize the welcome page and from there link Markdown files in version control: Markdown is nicely rendered.

Could I create a .log file for my personal Github website to tracking who is click my page?

I have a website written by js-css-html and some php. I have uploaded all the files to the github and it is activively working. As you know, it is a web-page which you can access it via a link.
What I'm trying to do is to see who click to my website. In my search I find that log files do this what I want. How can add log file to keep tracking who is click my web-page?
A GitHub page does have analytics:
either natively through Traffic page,
or through third-party tools, like Google analytics (with this script or a pixel tracked)

I am using GitHub to host my website. Which is the most suitable Disqus platform to be used?

I am using GitHub to host my website. Which is the most suitable Disqus platform to be used to enable commenting system on my Website?
By Platform I mean :
WordPress
Universal Code
Joomla
Blogger
Tumblr
Squarespace etc.
If you're using GitHub Pages, you can't use any of those Web platforms you mentioned, because they all either presume you have your own hosting space or are hosted on their own infrastructure. If you want to use Tumblr, sign up for it. If you want to use Joomla, get a virtual private server.
GitHub Pages constrains you to Jekyll, plus a finite set of plugins. Which may be fine, if that's all you need. If your website doesn't need any sort of custom backend logic (e.g. a database), you can use GitHub Pages just fine. Disqus can be added to your site with just a little bit of JavaScript.
The reasons you'd want to use GitHub pages are worthy of a separate question, but in a nutshell you get a free static website.

Is there an Open Source Version of Facebook Ads manager?

I am running a small community site and I want to have an ads manage similar to that which is on ravelry.com or Facebook where advertisers can create their own ads. I'm wondering if there are any open source platforms that would be easily tied into a Wordpress site that would allow for end users to manage their own ad spots.
I found this open source project that serves my purposes. Very impressive so far: http://orbitopenadserver.com/

Desktop notifications from GitHub

How can I get a desktop notification when new pushes appear at projects which I select?
Any RSS reader should do.
Go to your dashboard page on GitHub where it says "your news feed" - in the upper right corner is the orange rss icon with the text "News Feed", that you can subscribe to.
Axibase has designed a great little tool which leverages GitHub Webhook functionality to send desktop notifications via the messenger service of your choice. The basic mechanics of the tool are shown in the workflow below, and this guide will take you through the process step by step.
The configuration should only take about 10 minutes and the notifications can be sent anywhere the supported messenger service is installed, be it your desktop or smartphone.
Good luck!
(Full disclosure, I work for the team that designed ATSD which is the database that supports this tool)
