Special Thanks
Matt Stratton for his hard work on the castanet theme which drives this site and to rwaltr for his awesome video on using Gitlab to create a website using Hugo. Also, the DLN Crew for their weekly spotlight on Git which motivated me.
Original Documentation
Written documentation for getting started with building a simple blog lives here
How to Contribute to the Linux Lemming
A detailed blog post will be made for this but in this episode I go over how to:
- setup git as a new user
- FORK the linuxlemming repo (difference between clone and fork) 1
- make changes in VSCode
- submit a Merge Request
VSCode Documentation
I never looked at any documentation for VSCode until I started the process for this episode. It seems that the documentation is very well done and approachable. I really like its level of organization and the inclusion of hyperlinks to other relevant material.
I REALLY like the disclaimer of prior knowledge required to make good use of the documentation and how to gain the required knowledge if you don’t meet that criteria.
I am still getting used to VSCode and will most likely do a blog post on it in the future but my first impression is that VSCode documentation gets a 10/10.
