How to contribute a News post

To contribute a new News post, please follow these steps

  1. Create a new .md file in the folder news/_posts. The filename must be of the format YYYY-MM-DD-title-of-post.md.

  2. At the beginning of your .md file, put

---
layout: post
title: Title of your post
author: Your name
---
  1. Afterwards, you can write your post in markdown syntax. Please note that the title is put in automatically, so you do not have to put it in the post separately.

How to contribute a talk

Please add a new entry to the file _data/talks.yml, following this template

- title: First things
  author: Sebastian Gutsche
  location: Aachen, Germany
  date: "1988-05-28"
  conference: My conference
  conference_url: https://my.conference.de

To add a link to the PDF to your talk, you can either provide full URL to the pdf, via

  pdf_url: http://my.url.de/my.pdf

or you can copy the pdf, say my.pdf to the public subfolder of the website and add

  pdf: my.pdf

to the entry in the talks.yml file.

If your talk happens to be in a year that previously was not listed on the website, then please add the new year in the line

{% assign years = "2022,2021,2020,2019,2018,2017" | split: "," %}

of talks.html. Otherwise your talk will not show up on the website.

How to contribute a tutorial notebook

To contribute a new tutorial notebook, please follow these steps

  1. Create a binder-ready repository on GitHub, containing the notebook file. Assume the repository is https://github.com/myusername/mybinderrepo and the notebook file is mynotebook.ipynb inside this repository. (For instance, cf. OSCARBinder.)

  2. Create a thumbnail for the notebook, say mythumbnail.png and store it in /public/thumbnails.

  3. Create a new entry in the _data/tutorials.yml file, consisting of the following lines:

- title: "My new notebook"
  repository: myusername/mybinderrepo
  filename: mynotebook
  author: My Name
  thumbnail: mythumbnail.png
  language: julia
  date: Date at which the notebook was last modified

Please adjust all entries accordingly.

How to use syntax highlighting in Markdown files

You can use Jekylls highlighter to get syntax highlighting. For Julia code, do the following

```julia
function foo(x)
  return x
end
```

For code samples involving the Julia REPL mode, use this:

```console?lang=julia
julia> print(2)
2
```

Note however that the triple-backtick syntax does not work when nested inside HTML elements. In that case, you can also use the following Jekyll syntax:

{% highlight julia %}
function foo(x)
  return x
end
{% endhighlight %}

A full list of supported languages can be found here.
