The most popular option for hosting static sites. It's simple, free and even allows you to connect a custom domain. You can host your portfolio, an application or even a blog (with Jekyll).
The current limits are:
Programmers mostly use it as a hosting for their static applications, and it serves that purpose well. You just enable it in the options, and voila. Your site is up.
If you plan on doing something more with it, though. You're better off paying for an actual hosting. Your website might get taken down for any number of reasons.
