Create a 281 Code Portfolio Website

Before you Begin

Learn how to create your 281 Projects website by using a Gitlab Project Page.

Create a CIT 281 Code Portfolio Website

1. Sign in to Gitlab, and open your 281 Projects repo in Chrome. Copy the repo URL.
2. Start a shell on your computer, and cd to …repos/281/
3. Clone your remote repo. This will create a new, local repo on your computer. cd to 281-projects.
4. In Atom, add the 281-projects directory. Edit the content along the lines of the image, above.
   

   • The main navigation menu should have four links that connect to Gitlab repos. (Only Project 3 has to be live– the rest can generate 404 errors at this time.)

   • The page content should describe the concepts and skills you acquired in 281, and does not have to match  the example, above.

   • You are welcome to modify the page content and the page style as you think best. No penalty for creativity.

   • Preview your website locally, until it meets your specs.

5. Stage, commit, and push your changes to Gitlab.
6. Visit your published website to verify that it is correct. Note that it will take Gitlab some amount of time to update your site.
