ESIIL Stars Training Notes

This repo esiil-stars is displayed via GitHub pages as byandell.github.io/esiil-stars by turning on GitHub Pages in the same manner as the assignment to Build your Environmental Data Science portfolio.

Keeping Track of Your Work

Where did I have that repo? You can use your portfolio to keep track of your work. This is helpful for you, and lets other people who visit your portfolio know what you have done. This can be useful later to help build your resume, or collection of your work. Just add links to your projects. For instance, here is the ESIIL Stars 2026 page and textbook:

I can include work of ESIIL Stars students right here. Here are some migration projects in progress from OLC:

Displaying HTML Pages

The way to display an HTML file, such as a dynamic migration presentation, is to save it in a portfolio repo that is rendered via GitHub pages, such as using a [homepage].github.io. HTML files (ending in .html) do not display well in GitHub, but will display via GitHub Pages.

Here is the Western Meadowlark (Tasiyagnunpa) from cu-esiil-edu/03-migration-MarshaJ24 first trying to display the remote file, then using GitHub Pages rendering the locally stored in this repo.

Here are 2 versions of the same HTML file with explicit link the last two display as they are located in github pages.

Raw vs Rendered GitHub Pages

It is helpful to notice how the esiil-stars published portfolio and the README.md in GitHub versions of this page differ.

Here are 3 different versions of this README.md page of this repo. Hover over the link to reveal where it is going.
