How it is hosted

GitHub Pages, for free. Every push to main publishes public/ (see .github/workflows/pages.yml). Because the user site mdism.github.io has the custom domain tools.shaikhismail.com, this repo appears at https://tools.shaikhismail.com/exam-photo-resizer/ automatically.

One-time, in this repo on GitHub:

1. Settings → Pages → Build and deployment → Source: GitHub Actions.
2. About (gear icon on the repo page) → Topics: add shaikhismail-tool. That is what puts the tool on the landing page.

The repo name is the URL path, so keep it as exam-photo-resizer.

Privacy and security

Nothing is uploaded, saved or tracked: see PRIVACY.md (also published as privacy.html) and SECURITY.md.
