This week I worked on defining my final project idea and started to getting used to the documentation process.
I found this week to be a bit intemidating as software / web design in general
and writing in particular is not my strong suit. Nothing to gain by waiting so I dove
right in.
## Research
Decided to start off with MKDocs as having that in place would make documentation of
everything else easier.

## Installing MKDocs

Started off trying to install MKDocs. I linked off the mkdocs website into the " getting started " page
Tried installing Python from the website www.python.org but once I got back into the CMD that did not seem to work
After trying different commands in the CMD terminal the windows app store python came up!!! and after installing the app from there things seems to get back on track
After what I thought was success I seem to hit a wall to get more progress....
## Visual Studio
Next we needed to get IDE in place.
This was very straight forward off the Visual Studio website
https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/
## Mattermost
Got the link to set up Matter most. Followed direction for Windows install

## Uploading my first website
### From Youtube
So I have been diligently in MKDocs and ignoring the parts of the documentation that
talk about "build" command....i have been using ```mkdocs serve``` to start a local site

It seems that other folks in my class had a similar issue at the same time and a discussion
on mkdocs vs. html made me realize that I should probably go back and revisit the ```mkdocs build```
command.
## Use HTML
I get a folder named "site" filled with html files of my website.
You may also embed HTML in your markdown files
I quickly drop these files into my "Public folder" of the repository and commeit a push....
<hr/>
Success....kinds of....web site is up but no picture are showing .....
Try having a seperator line
I do some more research and looks like what I thought was the syntaxt for a relative pic link was not
right.
I kept using
``````
<hr/>
but is should be
``````
