This repository contains a website generator that can make your conference website.
It generates the content of the web pages from markdown documents stored in docs/content.
The content files contain markdown with metadata information, i.e., a front matter delimited by ---. Sometimes they provide only metadata information (e.g., index.md`). The metadata information follows the Yaml syntax.
Most of the content files have a metadata entry type: section
-
The main index page for your website:
docs/content/index.md- It contains the primary information about your event (title, dates, etc.)
- the
contentlist contains which files will be included and their ordering. (if their header containsactive: true)
-
A typical code of conduct:
docs/content/code-of-conduct.md- MPIA strongly recommends stating the code of conduct of your event clearly. You may want to update the example we provide.
-
We provide an example of a typical logistics section with
docs/content/logistics.md- it describes childcare service, information about lunch, conference dinner, and accomodation, for instance.
-
We provide a template for travel information

docs/content/travel-mpia.md - to Ringberg in

We provide a template for venue information

type:speakerslayout. An example indocs/content/speakers.md- This file lists speakers in the metadata, and the generator will take care of the rendering
