Goal:

  • Setup and release minimal website for further community contribution.
  • setup gh-pages (master branch is used, to setup organisational level domain)
  • setup Travis CI for auto-deployment (not needed)
  • setup DNS for pydelhi.org
  • Decide/add site color palette and overall theme of website.

Feature Requests goes as comments below and should be added here upon consensus.

Perhaps make a separate issue, but I'd like to see more discussion on pages regarding the specific agenda of the organization and what are the activities that the org will commit itself to.

theskumar commented

I'm planning to have basic html page up and running and then let it evolve as time passes and as people feel the need to add different functionality.

Lets use some jekyll theme, after customizing it.

Not that I'm dogmatic about it, but maybe something written in Python? :)

Though, I meant that just for up and running purpose.

I certainly agree with @theskumar that the priority here is to atleast put a face to organisation.
Since we need to submit proposal for Pycon2016 we need some quick and dirty solution so that we get the wheel moving.
As and when the time comes we can evolve the website.
@mgill25 Calling ourselves organisation is quite early we are not yet a fully functioning community we have a long way to go.

Guys, the homepage of pydelhi.org is up, which I think is good enough for v0.1.0 release. Have a look at https://pydelhi.org and also at the source code.

The homepage or you can say root of the pydelhi.org is going to be simple static html hosted on Github.

How to create host new things under banner of pydelhi.org:

  • A repo will be created under pydelhi github organisation, you need to publish gh-pages branch in that repo. The content in that branch will automatically available at https://pydelhi.org/<repo_name>
  • If that sub-site requires, dynamic content you are encouraged to create/host json api on the platform/language of your choice.
  • If the purpose is still not solved, shout out in the mailing for an independent sub-domain under pydelhi.org along with CNAME or A record details, anyone with access to pydelhi.org DNS will be able to help you out.
  • Send a pull request to add link/reference to the new thing that you created at https://github.com/pydelhi/pydelhi.github.io

@mgill25 I agree would love a python solution but @theskumar did a great job of getting us started. Its on github so we can just update using a pull request. I would recommened to use nikola for this in future.

Let's take up the discussion on new features here in release 0.2.0: #3

For features like blogging, we can create a new repo called gh:pydlehi/blog and it will available at pydelhi.org/blog/. Personally I will prefer the root repo i.e. pydelhi.github.io not use any tooling (similar thoughts as text editor vs IDE). Let's keep it simple?
