1. Principles and Practices

Objective

The main objectives of this week is to create and structure my Fab Academy website using HTML and CSS as well as setting up my GitHub repository and host my website. Additionally, I had to visit the lab and get familiriar with and visited the machines and equipments I will be using with my team. Additionally, I need to briefly sketch my final project and discribe it. Lastly, I signed Fab Academy student agreement. Fab Academy student agreement.

Getting started with GIT

What is Git

Git is an open source version control systems in which developeres can track and manage their code or project files. With Git, several multiple people can work on similtaneposly on the same project without overriding each other work. It helps developers to get all commit history (any change that have been made to the projects) or timeline. And it allows to create a local repository (clone) on your computer where you can store all files locally.

You can get git program through Git official website. Before downloading, you should choose the correct (derired) operating systen if it isn't selected automatically. For window operating sysytem, select the highled shace (window logo), for mach os, select the the corresponding icon and linux respectively.

Next process is to download and install code editor.

VS Code Studio

For web design, you need a code editor to streamline your workflow. Visual Studio Code (VS Code) is one of the most powerful , open-source code editor designed for developers (and me as well _import imogi here_) to write and debug code efficiently. It support a wide range of progragraming langaues and it offers many (amazing) features such as syntax highlighting, code suggestions, debugging tools, built-in terminal and mostly Git integration. The best part of VS Code is that, it is lightweigh and fast, and straightforaward to use allowing even begineers to start writing their code with an easy.

Downloading and installing VS Code Studio

To get VS Code Studio editor, vist the offical download webpage. It is free to use!

As for git, when downloading vs code, you should also chose your corresponding operating system as well. Whether you are using mac os, windows or linux operating system

After downloading and installing git and code editor, I cloned my git repository

Cloning git repository

To cone a git repository, log in into your git account and select "code" option and then "Clone" with with SSH.

After open command line (cmd) and type "ssh keygen" to generate a key

After get the ssh, git will be stored in folder "user/ssh" and open the public key with code editor

Copy and pase the public key to ssh box

Add the key to ssh box

After this, select add the key. Key note here is to disable the expiration date so the the key won't expire

After this, open code editor and open folder you clone on a local computer. Some example code are already included.

Next, open terminal in vs code

Note: I need to switch to Git Bash

Next, I typed "git status" to check changes made.

Afterward, I added it to the quee by using "git add"

It is advisable to add the comment related to what you have changed or added to your code so as to keep track easily

Lastly, I used "git push" to upload the code/change to git
