Reflections on using the massive-wiki-starter as the template for a personal Massive Wiki.
choose a folder on your computer to contain your wiki content (Bill uses ~/Documents/myWikis/ as the base and create a different folder for each wiki)
we are using Github, so this is one way to proceed:
(1) general outline: use massive-wiki-starter repository code to populate the new wiki-repository (download .zip file? fork the repo?); initialize this content into its own Github repository; configure and add the MWB and MWT submodules (this is getting complicated); make sure everything is up-to-date; push the current state as a baseline version of this new wiki(?)
(2022-07-31 update: https://cli.github.com/manual has some useful examples of how to proceed with a starter-wiki repository:
e.g., $ gh repo create mynewrepo --public --source=. --remote=upstream
also see Github - getting started notes
(2) edit the README.md file with information you want on your wiki home-page
.massivewikibuilder/mwb.yaml
, cf. MWB configurationwiki_dir/netlify.toml
and insure that the mwb command is using the basso theme
