Setup Habitat with Sitecore 8.2

First of All Happy New Year!!!

Working with Helix Design Principle using Habitat framework and Sitecore 8.2

So first You need to go through the official documentation https://github.com/Sitecore/Habitat/wiki/01-Getting-Started

Because i am also gone through it and followed all the steps.

Now i am going to explain and put the snapshot step by step that how i setup habitat with sitecore 8.2

Before going to work i would like to tell you guys that please check that do you have all the prerequisites exe and files.

files and exe:

SIM
Sitecore 8.2.zip
MongoDB with created services
NodeJS
VS2015
SQL

And the most important thing is Google access.

Now Let's start

So first Clone the habitat solution project from github repo:

https://github.com/Sitecore/Habitat


and after this goto root directory




and install npm by looking this image



and after install you will see node_modules under root directory




and now it's time to create sitecore instance for habitat as "habitat.dev.local"

so what we did,

we install SIM and if already exist then we start by creating instance like in image



click on next


and now select webform package as required in habitat


and click on next


and now it's ready you can check this with browser by opening url as

        http://habitat.dev.local/


  and once it's done

open visual studio as administrator

and open habitat project that we cloned earlier and now we create sitecore connection for habitat.dev.local


and after filling all the field verify by click on test button

once setup the connection then and once done rebuild the solution



and after this open task runner windows

and then follow the steps and run the task
01-copy-Sitecore-Licence

and then once complete
02-Nuget-restore



and now stop here and before running third task before doing this stop the instance from IIS
once stop then run the third task
03-Publish-All-Projects



after running successfully move to fourth and fifth task 


and now that's it from solution side.

Now goto the IIS and start the site for Habitat again.
and now check the habitat.dev.local/ on the browser



Thanks for your patience and time.
