Website repo for the ... website (domain is gone).

Archiving Old Content

Some of the web design work for previous events is wonderful, and we'd like to preserve the old pages & project showcases.

To prepare this repository for a new site, follow these steps:

1. Make a new directory under archive/ for the content you are retiring.
2. Move the top-level HTML files, stylesheets, and images/ folder to archive/<my_new_directory>.
3. Move any additional site-specific files (such as favicons, images, text files) to the archive folder.
4. Add a new index.html file, and start adding styles to a .scss stylesheet if you like! To make content retiring easier, it is helpful to use relative filepaths when linking to stylesheets.

How to build SASS

We are using SASS instead of normal CSS for this website. If you are testing locally, there are a few ways of generating CSS from the SASS files:

• Use the VSCode plugin Live Sass Compiler; preferred method for Chris.
• Use the SASS plugin for Gulp (part of Node.js); preferred method for Lizzy.
• Use the Ruby gem.

How to deploy website

If UWBHacks is to be re-used, in order to deploy the styling and HMTL changes you will need to open a PR to merge into gh-pages. gh-pages will deploy the website automatically after changes have been merged.
