Massive Wiki Starter Guidebook version 0.1.1
Download and install GitHub Desktop. Prerequisite: establish a Github account.
Download and install Obsidian.
Each Massive wiki is stored in a repository, or "repo" for short.
GitHub is a central website for storing and sharing repos.
Using this guidebook, you will make a "clone" (copy) of a repo from GitHub. The cloned repo is stored on your computer in one of your folders.
In this guidebook, we use a wiki called "Massive Sandbox". Click the link below to go to its GitHub repo:
https://github.com/massive-wiki/massive-sandbox
Find the green button that says "Code" and click it.
In the drop-down menu that opens, click "Open with GitHub Desktop".
When GitHub Desktop opens, it will have a small window that says "Clone Repository...".
Under "Local Path", click the "Choose..." button and choose a place on your computer to make the repo. A good place is in a folder called "GitHub" in your Documents folder.
When you've chosen the location, click the "Clone" button.
You are done with GitHub Desktop for now. You may close the application.
