hello Tom  
i would like to clone the dev compass github page.  
but it seem a big problem…  
for example: i create a repo [https://github.com/fabunion/test](https://github.com/fabunion/test)  
is clone from dev compas github page  
[https://fabunion.github.io/test/](https://fabunion.github.io/test/)  
but it seems the web page cannot load css…  
do you know why?

(the reason i do this is because i need to do a package to add to compas ,so i need to learn how to do a compas page using sphinx and github page)  
Thank you very much for help…

it would be better to use the `compaspkg` theme for that.  
and with `cookiecutter-compas-package` that should be really simple.

let’s assume you are on Mac and your package will be called `compas_fabulous`

**Create a virtual environment**

```bash
$ conda create -n test python=3.6 COMPAS
$ source activate test

```

**Install stuff**

```bash
$ pip install sphinx_compas_theme
$ pip install cookiecutter

```

**Create a COMPAS package**

```bash
$ mkdir ~/Code/COMPAS-packages
$ cd ~/Code/COMPAS-packages
$ cookiecutter gh:BlockResearchGroup/cookiecutter-compas-package

```

Just follow the instructions … and use `compas_fabulous` when asked for the project slug.

**Generate the docs**

```bash
$ cd compas_fabulous
$ pip install -r requirements-dev.txt
$ invoke docs
$ open docs/index.html

```

Let me know if that doesn’t work 🙂

thank you Tom,i’ve followed your instruction…it works!  
but there are 3 small questions:

1.conda create -n test python=3.6 COMPAS. this sentence i cannot run…it is error in my computer…so i donnot create a enviroment.

2.pip install -r requirements-dev.txt this sentence ,can you explain it what use of this?

3.what means of “cookiecutter gh:BlockResearchGroup/cookiecutter-compas-package”  
Thank you Tom~

1. can you post the error?
2. it will install some of the development tools (`sphinx`, `invoke`, `twine`, …) and install an editable version of your package (editable means that changes to the source code will have an effect on the installed version of the package)
3. it takes the template for compas packages (`cookiecutter-compas-package`) from our gihub organisation (`BlockResearchGroup`) and uses cookiecutter to create a package from the template.
