Getting started

prerequisites

• have Git installed on your machine
• have Node.js installed on your machine
• basic familiarity with your machine's command line
• basic understanding of JSON data outline (arrays of objects basically)

how to use

• fork the repository and clone locally
• cd into the project and run npm install to install dependencies
• once installation is complete, run npm run start to get your local copy running in the browser.

template instructions

1. replace the images

• replace /src/assets/img/self.png
• replace /public/favicon.ico
• replace /public/website.jpg (this is the image that shows up when you share the link on social media, you can take a screen shot when the infomation has been filled out)

2. Your Information

• edit assets/info/Info.js There are some instructions written in the comments there.
• replace /public/resume.pdf with your own resume, the link to the file is `https://yoursubdomain.yourdomain/resume.pdf

3. Color Scheme

Main Gradient

For the main gradient, you can change the colors in /src/assets/colors/mainGradient.js:

export let colors = ["rgb(0,255,164)", "rgb(166,104,255)"];

Particles Background Color

For the particles background color, you can change the colors in /src/assets/colors/particlesBg.js These are the colors I picked from iTerm2's color schemes, but you can use whatever you like.

export const particleBgColors = () => {
  // for dark use atom one dark, for light use CLRS
  const background = (darkMode = false) => (darkMode ? '#0d2538' : '#DCD6C8');
  const particle = (darkMode = false) => (darkMode ? '#c678dd' : '#5C7C8A');
  const links = (darkMode = false) => (darkMode ? '#98c379' : '#E7B669');

  return {
    background,
    particle,
    links,
  };
};

4. Google Analytics Credentials

• edit /src/utils/log.js

// fill with your own google analytics credentials
const firebaseConfig = {
  apiKey: '',
  authDomain: '',
  projectId: '',
  storageBucket: '',
  messagingSenderId: '',
  appId: '',
  measurementId: '',
};

5. Social Media Presence meta tags

• edit /public/index.html
• for meta tags, you can use the generator here
• twitter example

    <!-- Primary Meta Tags -->

    <meta name="title" content="Andy Luo, Full Stack Developer">

6. Deployment

I recommend using Netlify for deployment. It's free and easy to use. You can follow the instructions here to deploy your site.

P.S. If you are using Netlify, to resolved the bug from react-router-dom, you need to add a _redirects file in the public folder and add the following code:

/*    /index.html   200
