What to build today?

I want to build an integration from Github to an LLM (such as Gemini) to review markdown files for grammar, spelling, completeness, etc., and then commit the changes for review.

Introduction

This is where we begin our journey. The place where we return after getting lost or wandering off. Think of this as our home base with a collection of maps, tools, and information we need to traverse through this chaotic digital world. There are journals to capture our experiences and findings, notes to quickly reference when our memories fail, and a library of documentation that gives us the depth of knowledge to build upon and share. Everything here is open source and free to use, and the goal is to make this repository a comprehensive learning tool for everyone to use and share.

Quick Start

For those who are already familiar with core IT concepts, this is the quick start guide to get you going. There are some prerequisites listed before you can clone this repository. Each is linked to a detailed installation instruction.

Master Setup Local link Or Web link

Integrated Development Environment (Visual Studio Code) Local link Or Web link

Static Website Generator (Jekyll) Local link Or Web link

Site layout

Top Navigation Bar


<div class="bd-example-snippet bd-code-snippet">
{%- include header.html -%}
</div>

This is a fixed navigation bar that is always visible at the top of the page. It is a horizontal bar that contains links to the different sections of the site. The links are organized into three sections:

The sidebar navigation is a vertical bar that is always visible on the left side of the page. It is automatically generated based on the navigation YAML file under ../_data/navigation.yml.

Including a truncated navigation YAML file under the _data folder will automatically generate the sidebar and top navigation.

{% capture nav %}{% include_relative _data/navigation-old.yml %}{% endcapture %}{{ nav | truncate: 332 }}

Table Of Contents right sidebar

This is an automatically generated table of contents that is always visible on the right side of the page. It is generated from using a programs located under /_includes/toc.html

It is based on the heading tags in the markdown file. The table of contents is generated from the markdown file and is updated whenever the markdown file is updated.

Source Code Short Cuts

Above the right TOC, there is a short cut to the source code. This is a link to the GitHub repository. The link to the shortcut is based on the config file located under /_config.yml. This is the where you have forked this repository.

repository               : "bamr87/it-journey" # GitHub username/repo-name
local_repo               : "it-journey"
home_dir_pc              : &home-win '$HOME'
home_dir_mac             : &home-mac '$HOME'
local_git_pc             : [ *home-win, 'github\' ]
local_git_mac            : [ *home-mac, 'GitHub/' ]

NOTE: Replace $HOME with your home directory. Normally, it is the user id of the machine. Just type echo $HOME in the terminal.

Libraries are a great place to find free sheet music, especially large city libraries and university libraries. For example, the Boston Public Library houses one of the finest music libraries in the world, with over 150,000 volumes. If sheet music is in the public domain and in good condition, photocopying is allowed. So … check your local library.

notes Windows Powershell Cheatsheet

Windows PowerShell is the successor of the windows cmd language, which itself has its roots in the ms-dos Bat language. All recent versions of Windows offer PowerShell (PS). PS may be seen as Microsoft’s answer to the shells common in Unix/Linux (such as csh, bash, etc.). Its name implies that Microsoft sees the shell as powerful, which it arguably is. In these notes some important PS commands are listed and PowerShell’s most notable feature, the object pipeline, is discussed. From the outset it is important to note that, in contrast to Linux/Unix, Windows PowerShell is completely case-insensitive. The monospace text snippets below are valid PS and may be copied, pasted, and executed in a PowerShell- or a PowerShell_ISE-session. This is why the notes form a “Cheatsheet”. As is common for cheatsheets, there is hardly any explanation, the examples speak for themselves. It must be stressed here that many of the basic PS commands are not at all orthogonal, so that many variant pipelines can lead to the same effect. Often an example is one out of a multitude of possibilities accomplishing the same task.
