The beginning of something beaufitul

Plan and sketch a potential final project

This week's assignment was to plan and sketch a potential final project, to plan it was piece of cake, to sketch it, not so much, I am still working on it.
UPDATE ONE: I have successfully finished my first well done sketch and is uploaded in the project page.

Brackets Code Editor

Build a personal site

The big challenge for me was to build the webpage "old school style" using HTML and CSS without using wordpress or any other tool that facilitated my job. By using what you see in the pictures is how I came up with my web layout.

Playing with some Bootstrap components and templates

The best way I found out how to deal with the making of my website was to read and learn a lot on the tutorial websites w3schools and Code Academy. I think did good, being the first time that I actually use brackets to build something that remotely looks like a website.

Github version control software

Uploading files to Github

The first thing we learned in the fisrt week was about Github and that we will use it in our daily basis to upload any update we may have in our website. In it, we have our online repository and personal folders for each student, also we have to follow some step to successfully update our archives without errors.

Steps to follow:

Tell Git who you are

git config --global user.name "Sam Smith"
git config --global user.email sam@example.com

Check out a repository

git clone /path/to/repository

Add files

git add 
git add *

Commit

git commit -m "Commit message"

Push

git push origin master

Status

git status

Update from repository

git pull origin master
