    2.2. Install and use Git

    • We need to know what is Git and GitLab

      • Git : version control system, to locally treck changes in our project/folder and push and pull changes from repositories like GitHub, BitBucket, GitLab.

      • GitLab : service that allow to host project on a romote repository and have additional features to help in SDLC and CI,CD.

    • Create an account on Gitlab and sign up Gitlab

      • For the Fab Academy I alreaady have an account. this step is not usefull.

    • Download and install Git

    • Add your Git username and set your email

      • git config –-global user.name “jean.akaffou”
      • git config –-global user.name
      • git config -–global user.email “jean.akaffou@inphb.ci”
      • git config –-global user.name
      • git config –global –list

    • Setup SSH key in GitLab

      SSH stand for Secured SHell. Used for authentification. By setting ssh key I can connect to GitLab without using username and password each time.

      • Check if you have an SSH KEY already cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub (If you see a long string starting with ssh-rsa, you can skip the ssh-keygen step)
      • Generate your SSH key ssh-keygen -t rsa -C “$your_email”
      • Now let´s see your keygen cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
      • Copy your key (for windows) clip < ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
      • Finally add the copied key to GIT on the web version. Watch this tutorial

    2.3. Create my website

    • Go to GitLab

      • Go to Gitlab and log in.
      • Create New project/ repository (For fab academy, there is already a project created)
      • Clone your repository in local folder, using Visual Code studio.
      • setup Mkdocs and plug-in
      • Create a site
      • open your site in local server

    • Use a template to enhance your website

    • Modifie your website
