Required knowledge for the stuff below

1. Using the terminal

1. Hold Command (⌘) and press space to open the spotlight search
2. Type in 'Terminal' and press enter
3. You should see a black box which you can type into and enter commands into by pressing 'enter'

Things you will need to download

1. Git

1. Enter the command git into your terminal. If you don't have git, it should start installing (a lot of text should start raining down). If you do, you should just see a pretty long message and you will be able to continue entering commands

2. A text editor

1. You may have used one of these back in your tumblr days. If you don't have one, I personally use and reccomend Sublime Text 3

Getting a copy of the website source code onto your computer

1. Open a terminal
2. Enter the command cd desktop, this will change the directory on the terminal to your desktop
3. Enter the command git clone https://github.com/Luke-Tan/luke-tan.github.io.git. This will download a copy of the website source code onto your desktop

Editing the website

1. Setup

1. Open Sublime Text
2. Drag the folder that contains the website code into sublime text. You should then see a sidebar which contains the folder that you can access all the files from.
3. Open index.html. This is the file that you will be editing.

2. Adding to the Accolades section

3. Adding to the Experience section

Publishing your changes

1. Open a terminal
2. Enter the command cd desktop/luke-tan.github.io. This will change the directory on the terminal to the website folder
3. Enter the command git pull. This ensures that the code on your computer is up to date with the code on github.
4. Enter the command git add .
5. Enter the command git commit -m "<Your message here>", where is any message you want to type that details the changes you have made e.g. "Added a publication to the accolades section"
6. Enter the command git push. This will push all your changes to the github repository. Enter your username and password if prompted
