Many people have asked how I made my website. In this article, I want to describe that exact process and walk through all the tools and tech I used.

Note: This tutorial is mainly for Mac users as that’s what I use and can document.

Pre-Requisites

To deploy our website, we will use Git and GitHub quite a lot. The stuff you need is:

• GitHub account -> Create one here.
• Install git for command line -> Follow this guide.
• Generate SSH keys for cloning repos -> Follow this guide.
• Basic understanding of git commands -> Check out a guidebook here.
• Understanding of command line -> Here is a good tutorial.
