initial content - #3
Conversation
|
@cppsocial/curators please review the content in this patch for correctness and quality. I'm sure we're missing a lot of content (for example I didn't have an invite link for TCCPP that isn't a vanity link) - let's do additions in separate patches (feel free to start opening issues to track them). The about and contributing pages are pretty much empty as well. That's on purpose (gonna do that later), I guess it'd be nice to use github wiki to document how to add content to cpp.social :) Please ignore CI failures as well, I'll mess with that once review for the initial content has concluded. It's currently failing because the metadata update job hasn't run yet. |

To make the content review a little less painful, here's a current render of the site. To view it, extract the archive and run a http server :) |

Do we maybe want to use semantic line breaks (https://sembr.org/) like the C++ draft markup?
If we're going to maintain this git-based, it makes code review much easier in the long run if the line-based diffs are somewhat clean and logical.

That's a good idea.
I'll go through the content and see where we can do sembr without changing the way stuff renders. If it causes render failures, I'd prefer to address this separately (to split work on content from work on the site generator).

Feels like TCCPP is missing from this list.

yes, I didn't have an invite link for TCCPP other than the vanity link. The problem with the vanity links is that they can get yoinked rather easily - if you lose boosts, another server can grab your link (after a very short grace period iirc).
We require a regular invite link that never expires for this. Please send a followup PR to add TCCPP :)

Here's a build with the updated content. @cppsocial/curators please review again. I need 2 approvals to merge this - let's try to get the site online soon. Is the wording for the cards on the front page good? We should deal with missing content in followup PRs. For this one ensuring correctness of all presented information is the main goal. |

The "Contributing" and "About" pages are purposefully empty for this initial content PR. That'll require a follow-up PR. I'm working on something to embed the contributing documentation into the site directly on the side. |

This patch adds some initial content to fill the page. This is probably not very complete yet.
