Learning about Git as part of The Odin Project's Foundations Course. For practice I am using a GitHub repository for remote storage of this website, and accessing it on both my older Acer laptop (running Linux Mint) and my newer Dell laptop (dual-boot setup with Ubuntu and Windows). I am also using Visual Studio Code on my Dell, and trying out the in-built terminal window. The Odin Project recommends both GitHub and VS Code for undertaking their course, which I will use for the duration, but may look at alternatives down the track. For the moment I am loving this setup. It is clean and fast, and I can update my website on two devices now.

I've installed Zola SSG and Neocities CLI on this Dell too as they are still my means for building and hosting the site.

Update website:

$ zola build
$ cd public
$ neo push .

Push content to GitHub:

$ git add .
$ git commit -m "New post: 202409240800.md"
$ git push
