]Contributing a paclet
If you want to add a paclet to the repository, simply clone this repository, add your paclet to the ToAdd folder and then submit a pull request.
You can submit your own paclet shingle by providing a Markdown notebook like those that are already in the content directory. If you don't provide a notebook one will be automatically generated from the metadata in your PacletInfo.m file. A good example of a well-written PacletInfo.m can be found here . The extra parameters the site generator uses can be found here .
The idea behind this is described in detail in this blog post . You can find when the last build was by looking at the BuildInfo.m file.
