Gemini Transformation Plan

Gemini Transformation Plan

The goal of this transformation is to update the existing Jekyll website to have the look and feel of example.html. This involves changing the site from a multi-page blog to a single-page portfolio with a modern, minimalist design.

Plan

  1. Create a New Layout:
    • Create a new layout file: _layouts/portfolio.html.
    • This file will be based on the structure of example.html.
  2. Create a New CSS File:
    • Create a new CSS file: assets/css/portfolio.css.
    • Extract the CSS from the <style> block in example.html and place it in this new file.
  3. Update the New Layout:
    • Modify _layouts/portfolio.html to link to the new assets/css/portfolio.css stylesheet instead of having the CSS embedded.
  4. Update the Homepage (index.md):
    • Change the layout in the front matter of index.md to portfolio.
    • Restructure the content of index.md to match the sections in example.html:
      • Hero Section
      • “What I Build” Section
      • “How I Work” Section
      • “Experience” Section
      • Footer
    • The existing content from index.md will be mapped to these new sections.
  5. Update Configuration (_config.yml):
    • Remove the navbar-links configuration, as the new design is a single-page site and does not have a navigation bar.
  6. Review and Cleanup:
    • After the initial changes, a review will be conducted to identify any further adjustments or file cleanup needed to fully align the site with the new design. No files will be removed in this initial phase.
