We are using a custom css file as input to build at src/tailwind.css We will be serving the built css file at the
static folder in zola. static/css/tailwind.css

We are using this GitHub action github.com/shalzz/zola-deploy-action to
build the site from the master branch and deploy to the gh-pages branch.
Github then serves the content from the gh-pages branch at the respective domain specified in the settings.
