1.0 Concept

SitePages is a repository holding content from this static website, hosted on github, intended to provide access to code resourses and background information for former students and other interested developers. It is organized around a fairly large set of repositories and stories about that content.

2.0 Design

This site is entirely static - it can be served up, using the file: protocol, from a local drive. There is quite a bit of classic JavaScript, especially for things like menus, image handling, and the StoryTeller functionality.

The JavaScript and CSS styles are contained mostly in Script and Style files. Most of the HTML files reside in the JimFawcett.github.io directory. There are also subdirectories for story components, resources and images, as well as js and css directories.

3.0 Status

Most pages seem to be relatively free of broken links - there are still a few which you are welcome to tell me about. The Repositories are C++, C#, and Javascript, but there will be new repositories for other code, coming eventually.

I plan to make a "Starter Site" that will have its own repository to allow anyone wanting to set up a static site like this to get started quickly. That will probably appear sometime late this Fall (2019).
