Why does my GitHub Pages site fail to load assets (CSS, JavaScript)?
GitHub Pages asset loading issues are often due to incorrect paths or case-sensitivity. Ensure all asset paths are correct and match file names exactly.
When assets like CSS or JavaScript fail to load on GitHub Pages, the issue often lies in incorrect paths or case-sensitivity errors. Verify that links to assets are accurately spelled and use the correct file path structure. GitHub Pages is case-sensitive, so a reference to 'Styles.css' will not match 'styles.css.' Relative paths like './assets/style.css' are generally preferred for flexibility, but if your assets are in a specific folder, ensure the structure is consistently followed across all references. If using a custom domain, check that CNAME or DNS settings don’t inadvertently block asset requests. Correcting these factors usually restores asset loading.
