You need to make an index.html file. It is the default name used for the default page of a website. After making the file, add links to each home page in your folder, and host the website. You can host it by clicking on your repository -> settings, and then enable github pages. You can find your page then in [username].github.io/[repositoryname]

sajid chowdhury your index.html must be outside any folders, I only see three folders on your rep, without any other files.

Can you share the link to your repository here?

You have to turn on GitHub pages. If you use (yourusername).github.io as your repo name, it will automatically be the start if you want that.
