This will clone this repo to your github account and will deploy a copy of the demo website to your Netlify account (you can create an account during this process if you don't have one).
After deploying this project, Netlify Identity will add you as a CMS user and will email you an invite. Open that email, hit the "Accept the invite" link, and that should redirect you to the deployed site. From there, you can add your password to finish user setup.
Now that you are added as a CMS user, add /admin to the end of your site url, refesh the page, and log in using your new credentials. You should now see the content dashboard. Now you can start editing content!
Any changes saved in the CMS will trigger a git commit in your repo. That new commit will then trigger an auto-deployplent on Netlify.
If you want to test things locally before deploying, follow the steps below:
- open your terminal
- Clone the repo locally
git clone https://github.com/TylerMRoderick/fernfolio-11ty-template.git - Navigate to root folder:
cd fernfolio-11ty-template/ - Install the goods:
npm install - Run it:
npm start - You should now be able to see everything running on localhost:8080
npm start
Run 11ty with hot reload at localhost:8080
npm run build
Generate minified production build
Use this as the "Publish command" if needed by hosting such as Netlify.
If you change the repo that was created at deploy time from public to private, you'll need to regenerate your token, as the token generated using the deploy to Netlify button can only access public repositories. To regenerate your token, head to "Settings" in your Netlify site dashboard, go to the "Identity" section, then scroll to "Services" where you'll see an "Edit settings" button. Click that and you'll see a text link to "Generate access token in GitHub".
This is a fun side project for me and I always welcome questions/comments. If you run into any problems or have a feature request, please open an issue. I try to read every one and will gladly assist you whenever possible.
This project was originally forked from eleventy-netlify-boilerplate, but completely revamped to match the needs of a modern porfolio.
