2. Project management

This week I created my personal website via Gitlab and started to getting used to the documentation process.

Weekly assignment was to:

  • Build a personal site describing you and your final project

  • Upload it to the class archive

  • Work through a git tutorial

To do so, I did the following steps

Install git

The first step is to install git. Since I use Windows as an operating system, i should install gitbash as a terminal to use

Open and try gitbash

When you open gitbash, a interface with black color background is seen where you can try some git commands.

Secondly, I tried pwd command which indicates your working directory

And then I tried to make directory by mkdir command. I created mkdir FabAcademy_2022 as you can see in the following screenshot.

Git setup

to set up git I used the following commands: git config – global user.name

“jeanpierre.munyeshyaka” git config –global user.email shyakapetros17@gmail.com

Create SSH Key

I created SSH key in order to get access to get access to gitlab. It was not easy for me i got help from my local instructor.

Uploading info using Haroopad

In order to upload anything on my web, I was advised to install Haroopad as a document processor for windows.
