Thanks to all those who replied.

Anyways, I got GitHub to serve out my files.

- I was missing README.md.
- I had to go "Setting" (top right-end) | "Pages" (left column) | "main" 
branch (it was "none").

If URL is directory, then README.md is mandatory.  Otherwise, you get 404.
If URL is file, it serve out okay.

The best workflow, I think, is to do all editing locally.  That way, you 
always have 2 copies, local original and remote copy.  You can manually 
upload files, individually or multiple.  But, having GUI handle some of 
the bookkeeping should make things less error-prone. (ie. less tech 
support :-).  I'll look into *GitHub Desktop*.
     - GitHub uses git
     - static.app uses .zip
     - freeshell.org uses scp

PS. The cheapest paid hosting I discovered is *ShockHosting.com* 
($2.99/month, $2.24/month over 3years).
