Run locally

This is a static site — any static file server works.

Option A: open the file directly

Double-click index.html.

If your browser blocks something due to local file restrictions, use Option B.

Option B (recommended): run a local static server

From the project folder:

Python (built-in):

python -m http.server 8000

Then open:

Node (one-liner):

npx serve

Option C: VS Code task

This workspace includes a VS Code task named Open in Browser.

  • Run it via Terminal → Run Task… → Open in Browser (or Command Palette: Tasks: Run Task).
  • It opens Chrome at http://frankjamisoncomv2006.localhost/.
  • This assumes you already have a local web server and host mapping configured for that hostname.

If you don’t use that local setup, prefer Option A or B.

Customize content

Update text and sections

Edit index.html:

  • Header name + title
  • About paragraph
  • Work Experience entries
  • Education section
  • Footer contact links

Replace images

Replace files in images/ (or add new ones) and update references in index.html or css/styles.css.

Current key assets:

  • images/frank-jamison.jpg (profile photo)
  • images/education-background-image.jpg (education section background)

Update the downloadable resume

Replace documents/resume-frank-jamison.pdf with your latest PDF.

Note: the download link in index.html points at that exact filename.

Styling

All styling is in css/styles.css.

Key areas:

  • Global typography + layout (body, .content-wrap)
  • Navigation bar (nav)
  • Responsive behavior (media queries at the bottom)

Deployment

Because this is a static site, deployment is just hosting these files together:

  • index.html
  • css/
  • images/
  • documents/

GitHub Pages

  1. Push this repo to GitHub.
  2. In GitHub: Settings → Pages.
  3. Set Source to Deploy from a branch.
  4. Select branch main (or master) and folder / (root).

After it builds, GitHub will provide a public URL.

Custom domain (optional)

If you use a custom domain, configure DNS with your host and (for GitHub Pages) add a CNAME file.

Developer notes

  • The page uses in-page anchor navigation (#about, #work, #education, #contact).
  • Asset paths are relative; keep css/, images/, and documents/ alongside index.html when deploying.
  • External dependencies are loaded from CDNs, so local previews require an internet connection.

License

No license is currently specified in this repository.

About

FrankJamison.com v2006 is my original 2006 portfolio site, preserved as a static HTML and CSS project. It showcases early web design fundamentals, clean structure, and disciplined organization before modern frameworks became standard.
