Get started building your personal website

Showcase your software development skills

This repository gives you the code you'll need to kickstart a personal website that showcases your work as a software developer. And when you manage the code in a GitHub repository, it will automatically render a webpage with the owner's profile information, including a photo, bio, and repositories.

Your personal website is waiting to be personalized, though. It includes space to highlight your specific areas of interest in software development, like languages or industries. And it's standing by to publish your next great blog post.

It's all possible using the combination of Jekyll (for building your website), GitHub Pages (for hosting your website), and GitHub's API (for automatically populating your website with content).

Installation

Fork the `github/personal-website` repo

You'll be making your own copy of the "personal website starter" repository so you have your own project to customize. A…

How to use the new github.dev personal website generator

Josh Dzielak 🔆 on February 25, 2019

github.dev is a new community project by GitHub that lives on the .dev TLD. With it, you can fork, customize and deploy a personal site that shows ...

Some other fun edits I made to mine:

Jekyll plugins! I added comments to blog posts and an RSS feed to the blog so it can be pulled into dev.to (now to actually start a blog...)
Making stars and forks actually links. When I forked, at least, the icons were links for styling but went nowhere.

Switching icons to fontawesome over octoicons. That way I can easily add links to other profiles on the sidebar (like DEV!). It is bloaty, but I want all those pretty icons.
Limit shown projects based on... a lot of filters, to be honest. I only wanted to show active and non-forked repos. I put a dying rose emoji in the description of dead repos already, so that was an easy filter. I'm iffy on filtering out code puzzles, too, but it seemed like a good idea since that's not really "original" work.

My codebase is here if anyone wants to poke around my stuff:

Awesome additions 🎉 I hadn't noticed before that the stars and forks didn't have links properly set, I've added your code and now mine do too. Thank you!

Although out of the scope of this article, you will have to add your ssh key to github to allow the clone. You may even have to create ssh key-pairs for that.

Also, the gems didn't build on my pixelbook, didn't have time to figure out why.

This could make a good standalone #help post.

Nicolás M. Pardo • Feb 26 '19

Any help there? I'm getting a blank page with no info but the topics that were already in the template

Ok, what is a "devsigner"... And why do I feel you could make a whole post on just the backstory of this term.

As a frontend developer I can't tell if it's funny or I should be #triggered.

Josh Dzielak 🔆 • Feb 25 '19

Haha, great question! I think it was at Algolia when I first heard the term. We had a guy who was a designer and illustrator by background but had gotten very good at front end coding, enough where he could make his project ideas come to life end-to-end. He called himself a devsigner, and since then I've seen some other people doing it too.

I'm sure there is more backstory here though widely speaking, so many titles out there 😛

Luke Inglis • Feb 26 '19

Usually devsigned/devsigner has a more negative (though not usually too negative) connotation than that. Usually it refers to a page or app or feature &c which has not been fleshed out by an actual designer and for which a developer has done their best to make it look good. Obviously the results depend on the design chops of the dev

Al Romano • Feb 26 '19

+1.

This was my thought when I saw it.

I haven’t fully examined this yet, but I think there should be an option to include your DEV link somewhere here.

If anyone wants to look into this project and make a PR to add that, it would be awesome!!

Patrick Woods • Feb 25 '19

I just walked through this to make mine: patrickjwoods.github.io Excited to see what everyone else creates!

Kyle • Jul 30 '19

I'm curious if it's possible to display your merged pull requests using Github Dev?

Josh Dzielak 🔆 • Jul 30 '19

It looks like you could accomplish it with the v3 REST API using the search functionality to filter by user and merged status.

help.github.com/en/articles/search...

Once you had the right query, you could add that into GitHub Dev as another API call and display it on the UI.

Yeah, I was looking at that earlier. I assume API calls are hidden in the jekyll-github-metadata plugin, so I'd have to find another way to make API calls. Don't want to setup a server, though. AJAX, maybe?
