🌍 v2.mitchinson.dev

Built using my fork of Louis Barranqueiro's hexo theme tranquilpeak, using static site engine Hexo.

Organization

All files on the main branch are used as source files for Hexo to be able to build my website. The build is then deployed on the gh-pages branch.

My fork of tranquilpeak is used as the theme of the blog in a separate repo located under themes/bmitchinson_tranquilpeak.

Running the site locally

It's easy to do, and a great way to learn hexo and it's common theme structure.

Make sure to clone using git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/bmitchinson/Mitchinson.dev.git in order to simultaneously clone my fork of the tranquilpeak theme, as the markdown relies on it.

(From the main branch) Run:

• npm i @ root dir
• npm i @ themes/bmitchinson_tranquilpeak
• npm start @ themes/bmitchinson_tranquilpeak (to build the theme)
• npm start @ root dir (to generate the site and serve it locally)

This gives you a version of the site at localhost:4000 for tinkering 👍
