Adding a new demo

To add a new demo:

  1. Make a copy of the template directory at the root of this repository and give it a name, such as my-demo.

  2. Edit the README.md file in the new directory to clearly explain what your new demo is about.

  3. In the README file, include a GitHub.io link that points to the live demo.

    This repository is set up to be deployed live using GitHub Pages (GitHub.io), so a rendered index.html file in the my-demo directory (for example) will end up being accessible on the web at https://microsoftedge.github.io/demos/my-demo/.

  4. Edit the code (such as index.html or style.css) in the new directory. Add any files you need.

  5. Add a link to your demo in this README.md file, in a new row in one of the tables.
