Week 1: Project management
For week one, most of the assignments are spread over this site. The page itself is one of them, the initial plan for the final project it's on the final project section, and I dont believe someone following a tutorial (git) is something worth documentation.I can say I've been fiddling with git before, but not deep enough, I used Subversion on my first job, but now I'm switching fully to git.
As for the text editors, I'm now trying between atom and brackets, but I have to tinker a little bit more with the extensions in order to make a final decision, but definetely one of these is going to substitute Notepad++, my current text editor. I don't think I have the time to retake learning eMacs. I'm liking Atom's html preview inside the editor (additional package) more than live preview on Brackets, but as for autocompletion I'm prefering Brackets.
Getting started
So, for the first week, let's design the page and get started with the tools for planning the next 24 weeks. The initial idea is to keep here a log of the work, but as the final project and assignments have their own sections, I don't know if will be much left to put here. Anyway I'll review the content in 3-4 weeks and will make changes to the web structure if necessary.
I'm starting with FabAcademy template David used on the fabLAB's page. I have some experience with server-side web development but not so much with JS. Once I finish the final project plan I'm going to use another Bootstrap template and use the opportunity to branch the project.
