Pre-Setup

Install NodeJS/NPM: (This manages libraries you probably won't use)

• Node.JS/NPM

Install Git Shell: (This helps keep track of your code so you're not passing around a USB or using Google Drive)

• Windows Git Bash
• Mac Git Shell
• Linux Git

Take a tour of Git: (It's only a little confusing in the beginning) Learn Git

Instructions:

1. Visit https://github.com/Meshiest/cs146-example
2. Fork repo
3. Open command line
   • Windows: Open Git Bash or Powershell
   • Mac/Linux: Open a Terminal
4. Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/[your git username]/cs146-example.git
   • If you get a "Too many arguments" error, remove the brackets from your name
5. Change directory to the project folder cd repo-name
6. Install project dependencies npm install
   • If this doesn't work on windows git bash, try running these commands (cd ..., npm install) in a powershell
7. Copy minified jquery cp node_modules/jquery/dist/jquery.min.js ./
   • If this doesn't work on windows, try opening Git Bash if you're running this in cmd
8. Add and commit changes

   git add .
   git commit -m "your name CS146A"
   git push
   

   • If this wants you to do some weird git config --global thing, read those instructions!
9. Open a pull requests with the same name as your commit message (Come back to my repo, there might be a notification, otherwise click "new pull request" on your repo)
