GitHub Pages has no limit on "build limits" like Netlify does. One limitation of this approach, though, is that GitHub Pages sites are limited to 1 GB in size. Each doc build is 50 MB, meaning that we could host at a maximum 20 builds. If we needed to, we could resolve this by doing one (or multiple) of the following: - check with GitHub to see if they will increase the limit for this case - only build PRs that have been tagged "documentation" - add a workflow to automatically remove deploy previews after a certain amount of time has passed or after a PR has been merged - don't deploy on GitHub Pages, but use something like https://surge.sh/, which apparently doesn't have a hard limit on size of a static site
