For more information on this project, visit this project on my projects website at https://projects.michaelbateman.ca/personal-website/

This is my personal website. It contains all of my contact information along with other information about myself.

This is my final stable repository that contains all work that is stable. The beta site has it's own repository and it can be found here

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.

Note: This guide assumes your on a Unix machine

To run my website you will need the following things:

1. Git
2. Ruby
3. Jekyll

Below, shows how to install each of these.

Please follow these instructions exactly so you don't run into any errors.

All modern Mac's come with Git preinstalled. If you're using an older Mac or you do not have Git installed, please follow instructions on their website (https://git-scm.com). You will need Git to clone the repository.

Ruby also comes preinstalled on modern Mac's! If you do not have it, please follow instructions on their website (https://rubygems.org). You will need Ruby to install Jekyll.

Jekyll is a static site generator that is needed to build and run the website. We will install Jekyll using Ruby. Unfortunately, Jekyll is not preinstalled on Mac's, but it is very simple to setup.

Note: The $ is to remind that this is the command line. When entering prompts, you do not include the $.

• Open Terminal.app to access the command line. You should see something like this:

• Now, install Jekyll by typing:

Jekyll is now all installed!

Now, we need to use Git to clone my repository.

• Clone the repository with HTTPS

• Navigate into the directory by typing:

• Now to start the website, type:

Once the website is being served, you should see something like this:

You should now be able to access the site by going to http://localhost:4000

By default, Jekyll will serve the website on port 4000 which can get annoying if you are working on multiple projects and want to serve them all at the same time. You can type the following to serve it on another port:

Note: If you select port 80, you do not need to type in the port number, so instead you type http://localhost/.

If the following message appears when trying to bind on a different port, you will need to use the sudo command.

You now need to type:

• Sublime Text - The text editor
• Bootstrap - The CSS framework
• Jekyll - Static site generator

• Michael Bateman - GitHub
