Add GitHub Pages deployment workflow

[Copilot]

Adds automated deployment to GitHub Pages for the static portfolio site.

Changes

• .github/workflows/deploy.yml - Workflow triggers on push to main, uploads site artifact, deploys via actions/deploy-pages@v4
• README.md - Documents one-time GitHub Pages setup (Settings → Pages → Source: "GitHub Actions")

Post-merge setup

1. Enable GitHub Pages in repository settings, set source to "GitHub Actions"
2. Site deploys automatically to https://lothnic.github.io/portfolio/
3. Optional: rename repo to lothnic.github.io to serve at root domain

Original prompt

💡 You can make Copilot smarter by setting up custom instructions, customizing its development environment and configuring Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers. Learn more Copilot coding agent tips in the docs.

@copilot It was previously redirect or used with vercel can you check that

I checked the repository and found no Vercel configuration files (vercel.json) or previous deployment setup in the git history. The only Vercel reference is a project demo link in your portfolio.

If you had a Vercel deployment previously that wasn't tracked in git, the GitHub Actions workflow I added will replace it and deploy directly to GitHub Pages. The workflow is self-contained and doesn't conflict with any previous Vercel setup.

If you need to keep using Vercel instead, let me know and I can remove this workflow. Or if there's a specific configuration I should preserve, please point me to it.

Warning

Firewall rules blocked me from connecting to one or more addresses (expand for details)

I tried to connect to the following addresses, but was blocked by firewall rules:

• lothnic.github.io
  • Triggering command: /usr/bin/curl curl -s -o /dev/null -w %{http_code} REDACTED (dns block)

If you need me to access, download, or install something from one of these locations, you can either:

• Configure Actions setup steps to set up my environment, which run before the firewall is enabled
• Add the appropriate URLs or hosts to the custom allowlist in this repository's Copilot coding agent settings (admins only)
