Getting Started (for Collective members)

Supertype Collective is built with Next.js and Tailwind CSS. You should be able to get started by cloning the repo and running yarn install (preferred) or npm install. This installs all the dependencies and you should be able to run the development server with yarn dev (preferred) or npm run dev. Proceed to the Wiki page for instructions on creating your Developer Profile.

Once a profile has been created, it will be accessible at https://collective.supertype.ai/p/<your-name>. Supertype Collective is tested on the latest version of Chrome, Firefox and Brave browsers.

Out of the box, your Developer Profile will:

  • 📱 Looks great on every device, from mobile to the largest piece of desktop hardware you can find
  • 📊 Show the tech stack you use, affiliations, and other relevant information collected from GitHub or from the data/profiles/<your-name>.json file
  • âš¡ Blazing fast, with a 100 score on Performance, Accessibility, Best Practices and SEO on Google Lighthouse (now Google PageSpeed Insights) for both mobile and desktop
  • 🔗 API-driven, connect to your GitHub and WordPress accounts to automatically populate your profile with relevant information (more integrations to be supported soon)
  • 📄 Export Developer Profile to PDF directly
  • 📦 Infinitely customizable! Using React's famous composition pattern, you can easily author your Developer Profile using the pre-made blocks provided in the blocks directory, but still have the flexibility to build your own blocks

Building Blocks

Supertype Collective comes with a set of React components that can be used to build your profile. We call them "blocks". They are built with Tailwind CSS and are available in the blocks directory.

Below is a semi-complete example. You can see the output of these blocks on Supertype's co-founder Samuel Chan's Developer Profile using these pre-made blocks:

import me from '@/data/profiles/<your-name>.json'

export async function getStaticProps() {
    ...
    return {
        props: {
            data: me
        },
    }
}

const MyStack = () => {
    return (
        <Stack>
            <StackSection sectionName="AI &#38; Data">
                <IconRow tags={['pytorch', 'r', 'sql']} />
                <IconRow tags={['numpy', 'pandas', 'sklearn']} />
            </StackSection>
            ...
        </Stack>
    )
}

const Profile = ({ data }) => {    
    return (
        <Mainframe data={data}>
            <Toprow />
            <Body stack={<MyStack />} affiliations={<Affiliations />} />
        </Mainframe>
    )
}

Once you're done editing your Developer Profile (data/profiles/<your-name>.json and pages/p/<your-name>.json), run yarn build to generate a production build and confirm that there are no warnings. You can now push it to GitHub and open a pull request to merge your changes into the main branch, where it will be deployed onto the Collective platform, waiting for you to share with the world!
