If you have not yet set up an SSH key on your local machine you will need to do that to make push and pull requests to the origin repository

Follow the instructions in this link for setting up an SSH key

Follow the instructions in this link for adding your SSH key to github

• Fork the repository. This button is located on the top right part of this webpage. Look for the button that says fork. Please do not clone directly from this repo. All pull requests will be against your forked repo, not by cloning the repository directly.
• Once the project is forked and you can find it in your github account, click on the repository link
• Clone the repository by clicking the green button that says code to show the dropdown to copy your respository. Make sure the SSH tab is selected. Copy the url or click the copy button on the right of it
• Open your terminal, navigate where you want the project location to be located
• If you're using the terminal built into VScode use the shortcut control + ~ to bring up the terminal
• Type git clone <past in the repo url you copied>

• Now that you're repo is installed locally, you need to add a new git remote link so you can point to the original repository for pull requests
• Type git remote rename origin upstream
• Type git remote add origin [email protected]:Coding-Nexus/codingnexus.git
• These changes were made to link your local project to the original repository you forked, in addition to the forked reposity. You can verify this by typing git remote -v which should now correctly display a link to your local repository "upstream" and another remote link to the original repository that you forked from called origin
• The naming convention of origin pointing to the repo you forked from is best practiced, followed by your forked repository with the remote name upstream. Please feel free to change upstream to whatever name you like
• Now you should be able to git pull origin master to update your forked repository with any changes made to the origin repository
• Afterwhich you would type git push upstream master to update your forked master branch with the changes you just pulled from the origin repository

• CD into the project from your VScode or regular terminal window on your computer. If you're not familiar with terminal commands click here
• Type in the terminal npm install once you're inside your project (this will install all required dependencies to start up the website)
• You're now able to run gatsby develop to load the actual website
• The project page should load automatically but if it doesnt just navigate to localhost:8000

• Go into your terminal either from VScode or a regular terminal window
• Type npm run storybook
• The Storybook website should load automatically. If it doesn't navigate to localhost:6006
