Thank you creating the issue @malhotramanik 👍

Currently the svelte website is generated on the command npm run build into the public directory. On GitHub Pages the only directories that are deployed are / (root) and docs/.

We could use a GitHub Action to deploy to a branch from any folder:

In file .github/workflows/deploy.yml

name: Build and Deploy
on:
  push:
    branches:
      - main
jobs:
  build-and-deploy:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Checkout 🛎️
        uses: actions/checkout@v2.3.1 # If you're using actions/checkout@v2 you must set persist-credentials to false in most cases for the deployment to work correctly.
        with:
          persist-credentials: false

      - name: Install and Build 🔧 # This example project is built using npm and outputs the result to the 'build' folder. Replace with the commands required to build your project, or remove this step entirely if your site is pre-built.
        run: |
          npm install
          npm run build

      - name: Deploy 🚀
        uses: JamesIves/github-pages-deploy-action@3.6.1
        with:
          GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
          BRANCH: gh-pages # The branch the action should deploy to.
          FOLDER: build # The folder the action should deploy.
          CLEAN: true # Automatically remove deleted files from the deploy branch

@eddiejaoude I could add it today/tomorrow. If no one else wants to add it.
