All members of engineering club are free to contribute to the MHS Engineering Club website. When contributing, we want the repository to stay as neat and clean as possible, so please keep in mind the following rules:
- Commit using pull requests. If you want to commit, create a branch and request for the branch to be merged onto master. Don't try to commit directly to master.
- Use spaces for indentation. Set your editor to indent using spaces. Don't use tabs.
- Write descriptive commits. A good commit makes one clear change. Your commit message should describe what that change was and your description should describe why that change was made. Make sure you reference related issues.
- Don't put images in the repository. Putting images in the repository makes it needlessly larger.
- Test before committing. Don't commit anything you haven't tested
yourself. Make sure to check all pages that could be affected by your
change. For instance, if you alter
style.css, you must check every html page that links tostyle.css. - Don't rely on /page to link to /page.html. Github supports it, but most
servers don't. If the file is at
/about.html, link to/about.html. If you need a file to appear as/about/, put it at/about/index.html. We don't want to complicate testing environments by using nonstandard features.
The easiest way to test is probably through the Cloud9 IDE
as it works on Chromebooks as well. Set up a new workspace and "clone" this
repository, then git checkout the branch that you were working on. Preview your
work by selecting the "Preview" button near the top of the page.
git commit -am "Commit message here" to commit your work, and then git push to
update it on Github. To update, git pull.
Alternatively, if you have the HTML and CSS files on your computer already, simply double-click the HTML file you want and reload it each time you make a change. On a Chromebook downloading the files is as easy as making sure you're on the correct branch and then clicking the "Download ZIP" button on the right-hand side.
