Personal Website

Welcome to my personal website! This is an React-based Jamstack application. It offers a simple interface, easy modifications, static export capabilities, and free automatic deployments via GitHub Pages.

🚀 Features

• Built with modern JavaScript, using tools and frameworks like create-react-app, React-Router, and SCSS.
• Automated workflows via GitHub Actions.
• And more!

🔧 Dependencies

Ensure you have node >= v16. Optionally, use nvm to manage node versions.

🚀 Setup and Running

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone git://github.com/mldangelo/personal-site.git
   cd personal-site

2. (Optional) Ensure you're on Node v16 or higher:

   nvm install
   node --version

3. Install dependencies:

   npm install

4. Start the application:

   npm start

By default, the application should be available at http://localhost:3000/.

🚢 Deploying

Deploying to GitHub Pages

1. Update the environment variables and Git remote URL in .github/workflows/github-pages.yml.
2. Adjust the homepage value in package.json based on your hosting preferences.
3. Planning on using a custom domain? Update public/CNAME. Otherwise, remove it.

After making a commit to main, simply push your changes, and the deployment will be handled automatically.

Static Export

For a static export without deploying to GitHub Pages:

• Remove or disable .github/workflows/github-pages.yml.

• Execute:

  npm run predeploy

This will generate a static version in personal-site/build/ which you can host or deploy to a CDN.
