Syte2

Syte2 is the new and refined version of Syte, a personal website with interactive social integrations. Syte2 integrates with Twitter, Instagram, Foursquare, Github, Dribbble, Spotify/Last.fm, YouTube and Tumblr. You can see it in action on my personal site.

Stream/Timeline

Syte2 starts of with your social stream. It groups all integrations into a nice and easy to follow timeline.

##Responsive UI

Syte2 is responsive, it scales to any screen size.

##Technologies Used

Syte2 is MEAN! It uses MongoDB, Express, AngularJS and Node.js.

For development Syte2 uses LESS as the CSS pre-processor.

Syte2 also uses a font for icons. I should probably document how I design and build those fonts.

For deployment Syte2 uses Heroku (since they have a free option) with mLab MongoDB add-on.

##Setup Instructions

NOTE The setups instructions are mostly for Mac not sure if there are any differences for other OSs.

There are a few steps in order to get Syte2 configured, but don't worry they are pretty easy.

##Deployment Instructions

For now I've only deployed my website to Heroku since it's free to start out. I would love to see it deployed to different services.

Heroku deployment instructions
AWS deployment instructions (TODO)
Google Cloud deployment instructions (TODO)

Contributing

There are plans for several services to be added in the TODO file. One of these services is a good place to start when looking for ways to help. Also posting/fixing issues is always helpful.
