Introduction

👋 Welcome to GoatStyles, a repository for professional code style guides, where we strive to uphold the highest standards of software engineering.

In the realm of code style guides, we understand that opinions vary, and decisions often balance between necessity and subjectivity. However, amidst this diversity of perspectives, one principle remains paramount: consistency. By adhering to a consistent style, developers can enhance readability, maintainability, and collaboration within their codebases.

Build Instructions

To build and serve the GoatStyles site locally, follow these instructions:

Prerequisites

• Python 3.x: Ensure you have Python 3.x installed on your machine. You can check your Python version by running python --version in your terminal.
• Git: Make sure Git is installed for cloning the repository.

Steps

1. Clone the Repository

   • Use Git to clone the GoatStyles repository to your local machine:

     git clone https://github.com/goatbytes/GoatStyles.git
     cd GoatStyles

2. Set Up Python Environment (Optional)

   • It's recommended to create a virtual environment to keep dependencies required by the project separate from your global Python environment:

     python -m venv venv
     source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows use `venv\Scripts\activate`

3. Install Dependencies

   • Install the required Python packages including MkDocs and its extensions used by the project:

     pip install mkdocs mkdocs-material pymdown-extensions mkdocs-minify-plugin neoteroi-mkdocs mkdocs-git-revision-date-localized-plugin

4. Build the MkDocs Site

   • Build the static site files with MkDocs:

     mkdocs build

   • This command generates the site static files in the site directory.

5. Serve the Site Locally

   • To preview the site on your local machine, run:

     mkdocs serve

   • This command starts a local web server that serves the GoatStyles site. You can view the site by navigating to http://127.0.0.1:8000 in your web browser.

6. Making Changes

   • You can now make changes to the Markdown files. The site will automatically rebuild and refresh the browser page when you save changes.
