I’d be glad to help you troubleshoot the 404 error you’re encountering when accessing your JavaScript and CSS files on GitHub Pages. Here are some potential causes and solutions:

1. Incorrect File Paths:

  • Double-check file locations: Ensure that the paths to your JavaScript and CSS files in your HTML are correct relative to the root of your project.
  • Use relative paths: If your files are in a subdirectory, use relative paths like ./js/script.js or ../css/style.css .

2. File Existence:

  • Verify file presence: Make sure the files actually exist in the correct directory in your repository.
  • Check capitalization: Be mindful of case sensitivity in file and directory names, especially on Linux/macOS systems.

3. GitHub Pages Configuration:

  • Check base directory: Verify that the base directory specified in your GitHub Pages settings is correct. This directory should contain the root of your website files.
  • Enable GitHub Pages: Ensure that GitHub Pages is enabled for your repository under Settings > Pages .

4. Caching Issues:

  • Clear cache: Try clearing your browser’s cache and reloading the page to see if the issue persists.
  • Check GitHub Pages cache: If the issue persists, GitHub Pages might have cached an old version of your files. You can try forcing a rebuild by modifying a file in your repository and pushing the changes.

5. Custom Domain Setup:

  • Verify domain configuration: If you’re using a custom domain for your GitHub Pages site, ensure it’s correctly configured in your DNS settings.
  • Check CNAME record: Verify that the CNAME record points to your GitHub Pages repository.

Additional Tips:

  • Use a linter: A linter can help you identify potential errors in your HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files.
  • Inspect element: Use your browser’s developer tools to inspect the network tab and see if the requests for your JavaScript and CSS files are being made and if they’re returning a 404 error.
  • Check GitHub Pages logs: If you have access to your GitHub Pages logs, you might find more specific error messages that can help pinpoint the issue.

By following these steps and carefully examining your project structure, file paths, and GitHub Pages configuration, you should be able to resolve the 404 error and successfully load your JavaScript and CSS files.
