The first week on project management has already been a challenge. The first hurdle was to find and set up a computer with which to use UBUNTU. This required I install a dual boot with my Windows desk computer. After installing all the software, the task begins to learn how to use the installed software (along with a major refresh on the operating system). I am taking advantage of the documentation available on the web.

One of the assignments this week is learn HTML and to be able to lay out web pages with some sort of organization. I am comfortable with ASCII text editors, which were the main tools I used to create web pages for the first week. I used Notepad, VIM, and Gedit from both Windows and LINUX operating systems. I took Chris Rohal's advise about trying KompoZer (free and opensource); still, I felt the most productive with Notepad.

Another assignment for the first week of this class was to select and idea for a final project that will tie the 18-week course topics together. Select here for a link to my idea for a Final Project

The final hurdle is to get the files to Fab Academy. Now that the files were successfully pushed, here are the list of GIT commands that were used.

"git pull"

"git add ." or "git rm filename"

"git commit -m "some note""

"git push origin master"

"git status"

Here are a list of Git Commands for future reference.
