# Lapikud External Website

|

|
||
Welcome! This is the public-facing website for Lapikud. It's a learning project. If something breaks, that's totally fine. You just get to learn more about git.
|
||
|
||
Materials and design files are on **Google Drive → Lapikud → Tarkvara → Väliveeb**

## 🙋 How to help
|
||
|
||
You don't need to write code to contribute!
|
||
|
||
### Option 1 — Report something
|
||
Found a bug, typo, or something missing? [Open an issue](https://github.com/Lapikud/lapikud.github.io/issues) and describe what's wrong. That's already super helpful.
|
||
|
||
### Option 2 — Fix something yourself
|
||
1. **Fork** this repo (button in the top right on GitHub — it copies the project to your account)
|
||
2. Make your changes
|
||
3. Open a **pull request** back to this repo
|
||

## 🛠️ Setting up your dev environment
|
||
|
||
### What you need first
|
||
|
||
- [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/) — v18 or higher, but grab the **LTS version** (currently v24) to be safe
|
||
|
||
> Node.js comes with `npm` included, so you don't need to install that separately.
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
### Don't have a code editor yet?
|
||
|
||
If you don't have a preferred code editor, [VSCode](https://code.visualstudio.com/) is a solid choice. Download and install it, and you're good to go.

||

### Windows? Set up WSL first (recommended)
|
||
|
||
WSL lets you run Linux commands on Windows, which makes everything smoother.
|
||
|
||

<summary>📋 WSL setup steps</summary>
|
||
|
||
**Step 1** — Enable WSL. Run these two commands in PowerShell as Administrator (this enables the necessary Windows features):
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:Microsoft-Windows-Subsystem-Linux /all /norestart
|
||
dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:VirtualMachinePlatform /all /norestart
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Step 2** — Set WSL to version 2 (the better one):
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
wsl --set-default-version 2
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Step 3** — Install [Ubuntu from the Microsoft Store](https://apps.microsoft.com/store/detail/ubuntu/9NBLGGH4MSV6)
|
||
|
||
> ⚠️ If WSL doesn't work, check that **Virtualization** is enabled on your machine: open Task Manager → Performance tab → look for "Virtualization: Enabled"
|
||

### Installation
|
||
|
||
**1. Clone the repo** — this downloads the project to your computer:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
git clone https://github.com/Lapikud/lapikud.github.io.git
|
||
cd lapikud.github.io
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**2. Install dependencies** — this installs all the packages the project needs:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
npm install
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**3. Optimise images** — the optimised image variants are not stored in the repo, so you need to generate them locally before running the site:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
npm run optimise
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
> You only need to run this once after cloning, and again whenever you add or change images in any `original/` folder.
|
||
|
||
**4. Start the dev server** — this runs the site locally so you can see your changes live:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
npm run dev
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Then open the URL it gives you (usually `http://localhost:5173`) in your browser. 🎉
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 🖼️ Adding images
|
||
|
||
Place your original image files (PNG, JPG, etc.) into the appropriate `public/assets/{category}/original/` folder, then run:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
npm run optimise
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The script will generate optimised WebP and JPG variants automatically. **Do not commit anything inside `optimised/` folders** — those are generated and ignored by git.
|
||
|
||
> SVGs don't need optimising — just place them directly where they're needed, no `original/` folder required.
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 🚀 Deployment
|
||
|
||
Nothing to do here — GitHub automatically builds and deploys the site whenever something is pushed to the `v2` branch. The optimised images are generated as part of the build, so you don't need to worry about that either.
|
||
|
||
It usually takes **2–5 minutes**. You can watch it happen in the [Actions tab](https://github.com/Lapikud/lapikud.github.io/actions). |
