Clone And Use 📋

• The website is completely built on react-js library of javascript and that's why we need nodejs and npm installed.
• While installing nodejs and npm, try to install versions which are equal or greater than the versions mentioned in badges above.
• In case you want to help developing it or simply saving it, you can fork the repository just by clicking the button on the top-right corner of this page.
• After the successful installation of nodejs and npm, clone the repository into your local system using below command:

  •  git clone https://github.com/ashutosh1919/masterPortfolio.git

  • This will clone the whole repository in your system.
• To download required dependencies to your system, navigate to the directory where the cloned repository resides and execute following command:

  • npm install

• Now, the project is ready to use.
• You can check it using npm start, it will open the website locally on your browser.

Customize it to make your own portfolio ✏️

In this project, there are basically 4 things that you need to change to customize this to anyone else's portfolio: package.json, Personal Information, Github Information and Splash Logo.

package.json

Open this file, which is in the main cloned directory, choose any "name" and change "homepage " to https://<your-github-username>.github.io. Do not forget the https://, otherwise fonts will not load.

Personal Information

You will find src/portfolio.js file which contains the complete information about the user. The file looks something like below:

// Home Page
const greeting = {
    ...
}

// Social Media
const socialMediaLinks = {
    ...
}

...

You can change the personal information, experience, education, social media, certifications, blog information, contact information etc. in src/portfolio.js to directly reflect them in portfolio website.

Github Information

You will find git_data_fetcher.js file in the main directory of the repository. This file is used to fetch the data (Pull requests, Issues, Organizations, Pinned projects etc.) from your github. If you open the file, you will see below component at the top of the file. You need to change only that component.

const openSource = {
  githubConvertedToken: "Your Github Token Here.",
  githubUserName: "Your Github Username Here.",
};

You can get a github token as described here. Give all permissions while generating token. Also add your githubUserName in the correct field inside git_data_fetcher.js. Now, you need to run following command.

Warning: Treat your tokens like passwords and keep them secret. When working with the API, use tokens as environment variables instead of hardcoding them into your programs.

node git_data_fetcher.js

This will fetch all the data from your github and it will automatically replace my data with yours. Whenever you want to update the github related information on the website you need to run this command.

Splash Logo

Note here that if you click my portfolio, you can see animating the logo at the beginning. I have designed that logo in Figma and then animated it using css. Therefore, this part of portfolio is not customizable. But don't worry we have a solution to this problem. You have below two alternatives:

• If you want to design your own logo, then you can design it using Figma or Adobe XD or Adobe Illustrator or Inkscape. If you want to animate it, you can refer to ./src/components/Loader directory which contains js and css files which animates the logo.

• If you don't want Splash screen or you don't know how to design logo, then this option is for you.

  • You can open src/portfolio.js file and at the top of this file you will see settings component as below:

  • // Website related settings
    const settings = {
      isSplash: true,
    };

  • Change isSplash from true to false.
  • Now, if you see your website using npm start, it will directly open home rather than animating logo splash screen.
  • If you design your logo in future, then edit the files in ./src/components/Loader and then revert isSplash to true in src/portfolio.js.

Choose Theme 🌈

• You can take a look at src/theme.js file where all available themes are mentioned with respective color codes.

• At the bottom of this file you will see the below code:

  • export const chosenTheme = blueTheme;
  • You need to change the name from blueTheme to whatever theme you want to set your website to.
  • You can define new theme similarly as other themes and you can assign name of that new defined theme to chosenTheme.

• That's it. You just need to change the theme name and the code will take care of everything else.

  Run npm start to check if everything is ok.

Deployment 📦

• Once you are done with your setup and have successfully completed all steps above, you need to put your website online!
• I highly recommend using Github Pages to achieve this the EASIEST WAY.
• To deploy your website, you have two options. First you need to create a github repository with the name <your-github-username>.github.io. Please don't give it any other name.
• Now, you need to generate a production build and deploy the website.

Option 1:

• Run npm run build to generate the production build folder.
• Enter the build folder, git init and push the generated code to the master branch of your new repository. That's it. Done. You may need to git init and force push at every new build.

Option 2 (will not work with user pages):

• Run npm run deploy to build and create a branch called gh-pages. It will push the build files to that branch.
• The last step in deploying is to enable Github Pages in settings of the repository and select gh-pages branch.

Now, your website is successfully deployed and you can visit it at <your-github-username>.github.io.
