README

## Introduction

Create Portfolio helps you kickstart a personal website that showcases your work as a software developer. It will automatically render a webpage with the owner's profile information, including a photo, bio, and repositories.

Your personal website is waiting to be personalized, though. It includes space to highlight your specific areas of interest in software development, like languages or industries. And it's standing by to publish your next great blog post.

It's all possible using the combination of [Saber](https://saber.land) (for building your website), and GitHub's API (for automatically populating your website with content).

## Prerequisite

You need [Node.js](https://nodejs.org) installed on your machine.

## Quick Start

Create a new project with a single command:

```bash
npx create-portfolio my-site
# OR Yarn
yarn create portfolio my-site
```

Alternatively, you can install `create-portfolio` globally:

```bash
npm i -g create-portfolio
create-portfolio my-site
```

Change into your new directory:

```bash
cd my-site
```

Install dependencies:

```bash
npm install
```

Run the website locally:

```bash
npm run dev
```

Now browse to http://localhost:3000 you should see your page.

## Build for Production

Run `npm run build` to create a production build of your app, generated files can be found at `./public` folder, then it can be [deployed as a static website](https://saber.land/docs/deployment.html).

## Creating a Post

Check out [the example post](./packages/create-portfolio/template/pages/_posts/my-first-post.md).

### Adding a Social Media Cover Photo

By default, all posts will use your GitHub profile picture when embedded on social media. Should you wish to use a different image you can add under `assets.cover`:

```markdown
---
title: My First Post
layout: post
date: 2019-05-26 20:23:00
assets:
cover: @/images/cover.png
tags:
- life
---
```

## Site Configuration

Use `siteConfig` option in `saber-config.js` for site configuration.

### Site Title

It defaults to your GitHub name, you can customize it in `saber-config.js`:

```js
module.exports = {
siteConfig: {
title: 'A Custom Title'
}
}
```

### Site Description

It defaults to your GitHub bio, you can customize it in `saber-config.js`:

```js
module.exports = {
siteConfig: {
description: 'Introduce yourself...'
}
}
```

## Theme Configuration

Use `themeConfig` option in `saber-config.js` for theme configuration.

### Projects

By default we fetch your top 6 starred repositories from GitHub, if set to `pinned-project`, it will use pinned repositories instead:

```js
module.exports = {
themeConfig: {
projects: 'pinned-repos'
}
}
```

### Style

By default it uses `dark` style:

```js
module.exports = {
themeConfig: {
style: 'dark'
}
}
```

Available styles:

- `dark`
- `light`

### GitHub

This is required, we fetch data for this user.

```js
module.exports = {
themeConfig: {
// Your GitHub Username
github: 'egoist'
}
}
```

### Twitter

Show the link to your Twitter profile.

```js
module.exports = {
themeConfig: {
// Twitter handle
twitter: '_egoistlily'
}
}
```

### Sponsor

Add a _Sponsor_ button:

```js
module.exports = {
themeConfig: {
// Link to the donation page
sponsorLink: 'https://patreon.com/egoist',
// The tip to show when you hover the sponsor button
sponsorTip: 'Support me'
}
}
```

### Skills

Showcase your skills:

```js
module.exports = {
themeConfig: {
skills: [
{
topic: 'nodejs',
description: `I'm a Node.js core contributor`,
// `image` is optional, by default we load from GitHub
image: 'https://...'
}
]
}
}
```

The `topic` should be a valid [GitHub topic](https://github.com/topics), if the topic doesn't have a image by default on GitHub, you need to provide one yourself.

You can check if the image exists by visiting `https://github.com/github/explore/tree/master/topics/{topic}` (replace `{topic}` with actual topic).

### Comments

You can use Disqus for comments:

```yml
themeConfig:
disqus: disqus-short-name

# Note that `siteConfig.url` is required for Disqus
siteConfig:
url: https://example.com
```

Comments are only enabled for `post` layout, to disable comments in specific page, you can use the page attribute `comments`:

```markdown
---
title: Hello
layout: post
date: 2018-08-12
comments: false
---

Hello World!
```
