 * The build step is triggered every time a pull request is opened or a push is made to the `main` branch. This way you can make sure that the documentation does not break before merging your changes.
 * The deployment is triggered only when a tag is present (see [Automated versioning](#automated-versioning)). This ensures that new documentation versions are published in tandem with the release of a new package version on PyPI (see [GitHub actions workflow](#github-actions-workflow)).
 * The published docs are by default hosted at `https://<github_username_or_organization>.github.io/<package_name>/`. To enable hosting, you will need to go to the settings of your repository, and under the "Pages" section, select the `gh-pages` branch as the source for your GitHub pages site.
-* A popular alternative to GitHub pages for hosting the documentaiton is [Read the Docs](https://readthedocs.org/). To enable hosting on Read the Docs, you will need to create an account on the website and follow the instructions to link your GitHub repository to your Read the Docs account.

 ### Docstrings and API documentation
 The journey towards good documentation starts with writing docstrings for all functions in your module code. In the example `math.py` and `greetings.py` modules you will find some docstrings that you can use as a template. We have written the example docstrings following the [numpy style](https://sphinxcontrib-napoleon.readthedocs.io/en/latest/example_numpy.html) but you may also choose another widely used style, such as the [Google style](https://sphinxcontrib-napoleon.readthedocs.io/en/latest/example_google.html).
