There is a deploying script built out of box. You need to install one more tool before using it which is npm. This script will push your current static site to gh-pages branch. If there is no gh-pages branch yet, the script will create it for you.

# start to deploy your site to Github pages
$ npm run deploy

End.

If you like this theme, why not give it a star. :)
