jakartaee9-starter-boilerplate VS al-folio

Github is easy to share codes with others, for example I created jakartaee9-starter-boilerplate as a project template for Jakarta EE developers. For those who are familiar with Github, it is easy to start their new projects by forking or cloning this project directly. But obviously for a general Jakarta EE application, you do not need the configuraitons of all application severs, eg. Glassfish/Payara, WildFly, OpenLiberty, Apache TomEE, etc. For most of Java developers esp. Maven users, a simple and clean Maven archetype is still the preferred option to generate the new project skeleton, and you can add the required configuration back later.

jakartaee9-starter-boilerplate repository was created for developers who want to build a Jakarta EE 9 project. It was suggested to create a Maven archetype as a start point. This post describes how to generate a Jakarta EE 9 project skeleton from Maven archetype.

After it is done, the docs for the repository are available via http://hantsy.github.io/ , eg. https://hantsy.github.io/jakartaee9-starter-boilerplate/ is the online docs address for the repository hantsy/jakartaee9-starter-boilerplate.

Take a look at the ICLR example in that repository.

Since you’re a CS student, you may have some coding experience, so maybe you’d be interested in using this Jekyll theme made for academics, specifically students: https://github.com/alshedivat/al-folio

Hi folks! I've been trying to set up a website for graduate school a while now as my old one has outlived it's usefulness but can't seem to settle on an appropriate one. I would really appreciate it if folks could point me to their sites or sites that they really liked! Unfortunately, my search has only led me to the Wowchemy academic and the al-folio themes. Please do comment if you've come across any nice themes/templates/sites that you really like! Markdown support is preferred but I can make do without! Thanks

I think static site generators are by far the best way to go. It reduces complexity and allows you to write in stuff like Markdown so it massively saves time. I like al-folio: https://github.com/alshedivat/al-folio

Jekyll website has a great step-by-step tutorial to help you to set up a Jekyll driven static website from scratch. Once you have understood how Jekyll works, you can choose an existing template or themes to speed up the website building. There are plenty of themes in Jekyll showcases and Jekyll Themes which can reuse in your private website. After doing some research I finally choose alshedivat/al-folio.
