  Codes With Linda: My Portfolio Site + Blog



This website was built with the hello world starter from Gatsby. If you'll like to use this project as a template for your own website, don't forget to give me a shout out.

## 🚀 Quick start

1.  **Create a Gatsby site.**

    Fork and clone Repo

    ```shell

    git clone https://github.com/Linda-Ikechukwu/Personal-Site.git

    ```

2.  **Start developing.**

    Navigate into your new site’s directory and start it up.

    ```shell

    cd your-folder-name/

    gatsby develop

    ```

3.  **Open the source code and start editing!**

    Your site is now running at `http://localhost:8000`!

    _Note: You'll also see a second link: _`http://localhost:8000/___graphql`_. This is a tool you can use to experiment with querying your data. Learn more about using this tool in the [Gatsby tutorial](https://www.gatsbyjs.org/tutorial/part-five/#introducing-graphiql)._

    Open the project directory in your code editor of choice and edit `src/pages/index.js`. Save your changes and the browser will update in real time!

## 🧐 What's inside?

A quick look at the top-level files and directories you'll see in this Gatsby project.

    .

    ├── node_modules

    ├── src

    ├── static

    ├── .gitignore

    ├── .prettierrc

    ├── gatsby-config.js

    ├── gatsby-node.js

    ├── LICENSE

    ├── package-lock.json

    ├── package.json

    └── README.md

1.  **`/node_modules`**: This directory contains all of the modules of code that your project depends on (npm packages) are automatically installed.

2.  **`/src`**: This directory will contain all of the code related to what you will see on the front-end of your site (what you see in the browser) such as your site header or a page template. `src` is a convention for “source code”. Inside this folder, you will find `components`, `pages`, `templates` and `blog` folders.

3.  **`/static`**: This directory will contain all of the static files such as fonts, icons and images for your site

4.  **`.gitignore`**: This file tells git which files it should not track / not maintain a version history for.

5.  **`.prettierrc`**: This is a configuration file for [Prettier](https://prettier.io/). Prettier is a tool to help keep the formatting of your code consistent.

6.  **`gatsby-config.js`**: This is the main configuration file for a Gatsby site. This is where you can specify information about your site (metadata) like the site title and description, which Gatsby plugins you’d like to include, etc. (Check out the [config docs](https://www.gatsbyjs.org/docs/gatsby-config/) for more detail).

7.  **`gatsby-node.js`**: This file is where Gatsby expects to find any usage of the [Gatsby Node APIs](https://www.gatsbyjs.org/docs/node-apis/) (if any). These allow customization/extension of default Gatsby settings affecting pieces of the site build process.

8.  **`LICENSE`**: Gatsby is licensed under the MIT license.

9. **`package-lock.json`** (See `package.json` below, first). This is an automatically generated file based on the exact versions of your npm dependencies that were installed for your project. **(You won’t change this file directly).**

11. **`package.json`**: A manifest file for Node.js projects, which includes things like metadata (the project’s name, author, etc). This manifest is how npm knows which packages to install for your project.

12. **`README.md`**: A text file containing useful reference information about the project.
