Quick Start

Step 1) Fork this repo

Your Awesome App Landing Page will often be viewable immediately at http://username.github.io/awesome-app-landing-page (if it's not, you can often force it to build by completing step 2)

IMPORTANT: Don't forget to replace username with the GitHub user name or organization name you forked the repo to.

Step 2) Edit _config.yml to customize

Enter required information:

• App Name
• iOS App ID (10 Digit Numeric App ID)

Optionally enter additional information:

• Android App ID (e.g. com.example.appname)
• App Icon (will auto-magically load if left blank)
• App Screenshot (will auto-magically load if left blank)
• Marketing Header
• Marketing Description
• Social Links
• Hide/Show App Icon
• Hide/Show Smart App Banner
• Full Screen Background Image (optional)
• Site Title & Description
• iTunes Affiliate Token
• Google Analytics Site ID

Making a change to _config.yml (or any file in your repository) will force GitHub Pages to rebuild your site with jekyll. Your rebuilt site will be viewable a few seconds later at http://username.github.io/repository-name - if not, give it ten minutes as GitHub suggests and it'll appear soon

There are 2 different ways that you can make changes to your page's files:

1. Edit files within your repository in the browser at GitHub.com (shown below).
2. Clone down your repository and make updates locally, then push them to your GitHub repository.

iTunes Affiliate Token

If you'd like to make a little extra revenue from your paid iOS app, sign up for the iTunes Affiliate Program and enter your affiliate token in the config file.

Sign up here: http://www.apple.com/itunes/affiliates/

Disclaimer: If left empty, developer's affiliate token will be used. (this is a way for me, the author, to make a few pennies for my efforts without costing you a dime 😄)

Local Development (Optional)

1. Install Jekyll and plug-ins in one fell swoop. gem install github-pages This mirrors the plug-ins used by GitHub Pages on your local machine including Jekyll, Sass, etc.
2. Clone down your fork git clone https://github.com/yourusername/repository-name.git
3. Serve the site and watch for markup/sass changes jekyll serve
4. View your website at http://127.0.0.1:4000/
5. Commit any changes and push everything to the gh-pages branch of your repository. GitHub Pages will then rebuild and serve your website.
