Requirements to web application locally

1. Clone this repository.
2. Install Hugo locally. As of 1 Mar 2020, the workshop.aws build process uses Hugo 0.64.1

Running the web application locally

Navigate to the workshop directory

All command line directions in this documentation assume you are in the workshop directory. Navigate there now, if you aren't there already.

cd aws-iot-edukit-tutorials/workshop

Launching the website locally

Launch by using the following command:

hugo serve

Go to http://localhost:1313 in your browser

You should notice three things:

1. You have a left-side Intro menu, containing two submenus with names equal to the title properties in the previously created files.
2. The home page explains how to customize it by following the instructions.
3. When you run hugo server, when the contents of the files change, the page automatically refreshes with the changes. Neat!

Alternatively, you can run the following command in a terminal window to tell Hugo to automatically rebuild whenever a file is changed. This can be helpful when rapidly iterating over content changes.

hugo server

Adding language translations:

To add additional languages, update the config.toml with the language you're adding. The example below demonstrates how to add French language translations. To add individual pages in French, go to the corresponding tutorial and section directory in the workshop/content folder and add a new file following the pattern _index.<<language extention>>.md. So to match the config.toml example below for french, the page filename would be _index.fr.md.

[Languages.fr]
title = "Mon atelier AWS"
weight = 2
languageName = "Français"
