Technical details

This tool allows you to build your own website that looks like a terminal/console. To make this possible, it was implemented in a dynamic way. All you have to do is to configure a few things here and there and you have your own version.

Functionalities

• Fully generic website easy to customize according to the user's needs
• TAB autocompletion support
• A few linux-like possible commands
• Typewriter effect when showing a command result
• Possible to skip the typewriter effect by doubleclicking anywhere
• Sidenav with all the files to make it easy for people with no know-how to navigate through your website
• Since the website is generic enough, you're able to create a language-checker function and associate different texts according to the user's browser language (my website version has support for both portuguese and english languages).

Future (TODO) functionalities

• History navigation using Up and Down arrows
• Ask for a password when using sudo command
• email or similar command that allows the visitor to send an email directly to the website owner

Limitations

• No support for internet explorer, showing the message NOTE: I see you're using internet explorer, this website won't work properly.

Getting started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes. See deployment for notes on how to deploy the project on a live system.

Prerequisites

This template was built using Visual Studio Code but since it's a static webpage, you can even use the pre-installed windows notepad.

Configuring the website

Before you deploy the website, consider changing the following:

• Go to js/main.js and replace all the text on both singleton vars:
  • configs: Contains all the text used on the website plus a few configurations.
  • files: All the fake files used on the website. These files are also used to be listed on the sidenav. Also please notice if a file content is a raw URL, when clicked/concatenated it will be opened on a new tab.
• The page title on the index.html file.
• The website color on the css/main.css file.
• The images located at the img folder. The suggested sizes are 150x150 px for the avatar and 32x32/16x16 px for the favicon.
