Welcome to the INFO343 lab!
Throughout this year, the labs will be unique times that Evan will teach new cool web technologies, have various academic & industry relevant exercises, and incentivize collaborative group work.
Thoughts from Evan:
I'm gonna teach some really cool stuff that won't explicitly be covered in the course material, and highly recommend you actively work in lab to become a better developer and web designer!
- Finish installing all of the necessary software (all 5 bullet points)
- Fork and clone this repository
- Once cloned, create a new branch, call it something like
dev
ordevelopment
orlab
- Do some coding โ it doesn't have to be much, your HTML & CSS exercises are due later
- Put something cool or interesting in the
index.html
file - Style your code with
styles.css
andlink
it to theindex.html
- Feel free to use the
live-server
tool from Wednesday for testing
- Put something cool or interesting in the
- Once you've finished coding,
add
,commit
, andpush
to the new branch you just createdSometimes you may get something that looks like:
git push --set-upstream origin dev
-- in which case, just copy paste that into the command line and hit enter - After you've successfully pushed to your new branch, navigate to the forked repo on Github (eg
https://github.com/{YOUR USERNAME}/lab00-git-started
)- You should see a button like this (click it and make a new Pull Request!):
- The PR should pop up with some pre-defined text (not super important, but you can find it in the
.github
dir in the repo). Fill out the PR and add the necessary screenshots: - Pair up with another student, send eachother your PR links (eg:
https://github.com/{YOUR USERNAME}/lab00-git-started/pull/1
) and give eachother feedback!
๐ก Feedback can be finding bugs, having them fix code style, variable names to make more sense, or just questions on why they did stuff! Read more about that here!
-
