Create your website for reports

Mikael Roos edited this page Jan 16, 2020 · 2 revisions

You should create your own website for the reports you will write during the course. This website should be published on GitHub Pages.

Precondition

Use your forked course repo on GitHub.

You have published your forked course repo on Github Pages.

Ensure you have synced your "source" upstream, before you proceed.

Take a copy of example/report

There is a sample website that you should copy from example/report.

# Go to your repo
cp -rvi example/report work/

You can now use ls or your texteditor to check out the files that now are available in work/report. It is a set of HTML, CSS and JavaScript files. It is a simple website.

You can review it by opening it up in you web browser.

Publish on GitHub Pages

Add, commit and publish the site. Update your home page so it links to your site in work/report/me.html.

Make the site "your own"

Review all files in the website and update it to look as your own website. Remove the template text and write your own.

You shall do the following.

  1. Update me.html so that it contains a short presentation about your self and attach a image that represents yourself. You may anonymize yourself if you are concerned with privacy.

  2. In the page report.html you will write reports on various tasks. There will be one report from each section of the course.

  3. In the page about.html:

    1. Add an image of your liking, as you find representing this course.
    2. Get the link to the source course repo on GitHub and link to it.
    3. Get the link to your forked course repo on GitHub and link to it.
  4. You can update the stylesheet and possibly JavaScript in the css/ and js/ directories. It is not necessary, do it if you want and feel that you have time.
