What Hacker News says
3 sourcesCongratulations on your first Go (Golang) project.
The source code doesn’t do anything related with GitHub pages though.
It simply starts a file server with no more features than adding “.html” at the end of the URL.
You may want to change the default port from :80 to :8080 so people don’t have to set “-port” every time.
Also, in the README, you say that one of the implemented features is:
> 4. Check whether 404.html is a file, if so serve that file as a 404
But your code says otherwise [1] since there is no 404.html file in the repository.
