Timeline of my life.
- Super simple
- No fancy formatting
- No fancy setup
- No fancy effects
- Flexible datetimes because sometimes you don't remember the exact date of an event
- Fork cheeaun/life.
git checkout -b gh-pages
(or any branch name you like)- Make a copy of
life.example.md
, rename it tolife.md
. - Add your life events into
life.md
. - Preview it on a local server. Use
python -m SimpleHTTPServer
orhttp-server
. - Commit
life.md
(not inmaster
branch). git push origin gh-pages -f
and publish to GitHub Pages.- Update the website link in your GitHub repo description.
- Tell the world about your Life.
- Add your Life to the Lives page.
git checkout master
git remote add cheeaun https://github.com/cheeaun/life.git
git fetch cheeaun
andgit merge cheeaun/master
to upgrade to latest Life.git checkout gh-pages
andgit merge master
to sync changes back to GitHub Pages.
For those who forked the earlier version of Life, these are the steps that I would recommend (requires some Git-fu):
- Backup your
life.md
. - Reset (hard) your fork to this repo's
master
branch. - Clean up your
gh-pages
. - Re-commit your
life.md
there. - Make sure your
master
branch is untouched so that future updates work.
- Make a copy of
config.example.json
, rename it toconfig.json
. - Only commit it in
gh-pages
branch.
