Adding a Project

Overview

Locations

• Site projects:

  ~/repos/arjit-me/lib/projects.ts

• Resume projects:

  ~/repos/arjit-resume/resume/projects.tex

• Resume PDF:

  ~/repos/arjit-resume/arjit_jaiswal_resume.pdf

  (symlinked to

  ~/Documents/arjit_jaiswal_resume.pdf

  )

Process

1. Add to

   lib/projects.ts

   in arjit-me:
   • Add a new entry to the

     projects

     array
   • Set

     featured: false

     unless told otherwise
   • Use the repo slug for

     id

     , but a human-readable name for

     title

     on the site is fine either way
2. Add to

   resume/projects.tex

   in arjit-resume:
   • Add a

     \projectentry{Name}{url}{description}{tech}{date}

   • Always use human-readable names, not repo slugs (e.g. "Arjit Skills" not "arjit-skills")
   • Keep descriptions concise (one line)
   • Insert in chronological order (newest first)
3. Compile the resume PDF:
   bash

   cd ~/repos/arjit-resume
   make build

   The symlink at

   ~/Documents/arjit_jaiswal_resume.pdf

   auto-updates.
4. Push the site live:
   bash

   cd ~/repos/arjit-me
   git add lib/projects.ts
   git commit -m "Add <project-name> to projects"
   git push origin main

Rules

• Resume uses human-readable names; site can use either.
• Always compile the PDF after resume changes.
• Always push arjit-me to main to deploy.
