As I read your post I see terms like GitHub, OAuth, OAuth flow; these are already technical terms that many people would not understand. How could you describe this to your target audience? Just curious.

Basically as you see on the website - “Connect to GitHub and publish”, “GitHub Pages is a free service to host websites”, etc.

I do think the target user for this would probably have needed to heard of GitHub to really “get it” - but maybe they just know it’s something developers use, and not any more than that.
