05. Download the GitHub Repo

Download the GitHub Repo

First, you'll need a GitHub account if you don't already have one.

A free account works perfectly for this project. Once you have your account, you can follow the steps below to download the course code.

  1. Find the course repository (folder) here: https://github.com/udacity/frontend-nanodegree-resume
  2. Click the button that says "Download ZIP" (you'll find it on the right hand side of the screen)
    • Note: If you're already a GitHub pro you may want to instead fork the repository to have it appear on your profile. If you don't know what that means, don't worry - you'll be fine just downloading the zip.
  3. Unzip the download and open the project files. Here's a quick overview of everything in the folder:
    • index.html: The HTML file that will display your project. Open this file in the browser to see your work.
    • css/style.css: The styles for your resumer page.
    • js/helper.js: A JavaScript file with some helpful functions for your project. You won't have to modify this file until Problem Set 3
    • js/jQuery.js: A JavaScript library file that enables jQuery (you'll learn what that is soon!)
    • js/resumerBuilder.js: This is where you'll do most of your coding for this project. It's initially empty but you'll soon fill it with lots of cool code!
