Pushing the code to GitHub 🚛

  • Create a new github repository with an approriate name say my my_app ( DO NOT ADD LICENSE, README, CODE OF CONDUCT, GITIGNORE files at this moment)

Depending upon your preference, you can make the repository private or public

  • Open the Terminal/Command Prompt once again

  • Make new folder having the same name as the github repository name

mkdir my_app
  • Now let's copy all the files of the folder containing our prototype to this folder
cp -a ./img_ai_app_boilerplate/. ./my_app/
  • Navigate to the location of the above newly created directory

cd my_app

  • After copying, please feel free to remove the documentation related files that are unnecessary for your prototype
rm -r Guides\
rm LICSENSE CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md CONTRIBUTING.md README.MD
rm -r assets\readme_assets\
  • Intiatilize the directory as a git repository
git init
  • Set remote to your repository on GitHub( Copy the link of the repository from the Address Bar)
git remote add origin https://github.com/your_github_username/my_app.git
  • Track and commit the current changes
git add .
git commit -m "v.0.0.1"
  • Push the changes to your remote repository on GitHub
git push origin main

  • Once successsful, close the terminal.

  • Go to GitHub and locate the repository to check if the changes are reflected

  • Now add your own custom:

    • README.MD file (To describe your project in brief)
    • LICENSE file (This depends upon you. I prefer going with MIT License for my open source repositories)
    • CODE_OF_CONDUCT.MD ( GitHub already provides a template for this)
    • Short Repository Description on the right
    • Relevant Tags
