SERPL Website

Website for The Southeast Regional Programming Languages Seminar (SERPL).

Development Notes

This website is built with markdown, Jekyll, Bootstrap and hosted by Github Pages.

For small changes it is sufficient to make changes to the markdown and then commit and push those changes. The website will update automatically.

Debugging the website locally

Setup environment:
- To install Jekyll for various OS: https://jekyllrb.com/docs/installation
- You will need at least Ruby, and
- Ruby gems bundler and jekyll: gem install jekyll bundler
- Also needed this: bundle add webrick
See instructions of how to debug pages locally. Generally, once the dependencies are set up, run:
```
bundle exec jekyll serve
```

Notes on templating

All page templates are configured in _config.yml. To add a new event:

make a new layout in _layouts/ (see 2023.html as example)
apply that new layout to selected scope (see defaults in _config.yml)

Existing events will retain their layout using the scoped paths.
