ChiBitDevs

Simple Jekyll site for hosting all of the links from meetups past and future.

Development

You'll need Ruby & Jekyll to run the site locally. Once they're setup:

  • Clone the repository and go into the directory
  • Run bundle install
  • Run jekyll serve
  • Go to http://localhost:4000

Making a Post

To make a new post, make a new file in _posts/ with a title of YYYY-MM-DD-title-goes-here. At the top of the file you'll want to provide the following information:

---
layout: post # Always post
type: socratic # or whitepaper for a whitepaper series
title: "Name of the Post"
meetup: https://www.meetup.com/BitDevsNYC/events/[event id here]/
---

After that, it's just simple markdown. The site will auto-generate the rest.

Changing Site Data

All site configurations are either contained in _config.yml or _data/settings.yml. Some data is duplicated between the two due to the way Jekyll injects variables, so be sure to update both.
