This is the website that keeps the blog posts for each THW meeting at the University of California - Berkeley. The rendered website can be found here. The basic structure is that code examples are in /code_examples, while the code for the website (using GitHub pages) is in /docs.
Thanks to Technology (or more specifically thanks to all kinds of awesome people in the binder project, as well as Yuvi Panda, Aaron Culich, and Chris Holdgraf for helping us learn & debug), you can run much of what we learn about in your browser without installing anything. It spins up a temporary Jupyter server in the cloud, containing the contents of the code_examples directory and all the software we've specified in the Dockerfile and environment.yml. Click on badge below to get started:
Watch out after 1-2 hours these temporary servers are destroyed and work will be lost!
One very common reason that folks want to contribute to this repository is that they are planning to give the main skill sharing session for some week at THW. To be the speaker, you'll need to sign up, set up, show up, and speak up.
We try to decide the semester meeting topics at the beginning of the session. So, if you have a topic you'd like to talk about, please suggest it over the listhost before the semester starts or show up to the first meeting of the semester.
We love sessions that have example code! If you have example code, please place it in an appropriately named directory in the master branch of this GitHub repository. Make a pull request or push your branch to the thehackerwithin/berkeley fork. If you know how to do that, please go right ahead. If you aren't sure about forks and pull requests, here are some detailed instructions:
- Go here: https://github.com/thehackerwithin/berkeley
- Press the Fork button (you'll need a github account)
- In your terminal, execute
git clone https://github.com/YOURUSERNAME/berkeley.git - Enter the new directory with
cd berkeley - Add the THW remote with
git remote add thw https://github.com/thehackerwithin/berkeley.git - Fetch information about the THW remote with
git fetch thw - Now, you need to check what branch you're in
git branch - If you're in the master branch, move the important files to an appropriately named directory there. (Browse the directory for examples of other's additions.)
- Add the files to the repo:
git add <path to your new files> - Commit them.
git commit -am "I added files for the tutorial on my topic.." - Git push to your origin with
git push origin master - Navigate in your browser to https://github.com/YOURUSERNAME/berkeley and press the pull request button
Now you're done adding code example files! You'll need to edit the post related to your talk.
Rather than preparing a slideshow, please consider leading as interactive a session as possible. This is often done by leading the audience through whatever code examples you pushed to the master branch. Supportive text can be added to the markdown file holding the blog post for your talk. To add text to that file and to edit your bio, go to the /docs folder where the website is held. There, you may need to both create and modify the post.
In the berkeley/docs, you'll notice a _posts
directory. The post related to the day and topic of your talk may already
exist. If so, skip ahead to "Modifying a Post."
If not, you'll need to create it. Thankfully, you'll also notice a
_drafts directory. In the drafts directory, you'll find an empty template for
meeting minutes YYYY-MM-DD-subject.markdown. If you're preparing for a
special holiday meeting on March 1, 2015, then the proper name for the file
you're creating should be something like 2015-03-01-katysbirthday.markdown.
- In the berkeley directory, execute
cp _drafts/YYYY-MM-DD-subject.markdown _posts/2015-03-01-katysbirthday.markdown - Then, edit that file as you see fit
- Add that file to the repository
git add _posts/2015-03-01-katysbirthday.markdown - Commit it:
git commit -am "adds a post for march 1" - Push it to your fork
git push origin master - Check if it worked at https://YOUR-USER.github.io/berkeley .
- Iterate on this until you're happy
- and then either push to the upstream gh-pages remote branch or make a pull request.
This is very similar to creating a post:
- edit the post
- Commit it: `git commit -am "adds a post for march 1"
- Push it to your fork
git push origin master - Check if it worked at https://YOUR-USER.github.io/berkeley .
- Iterate on this until you're happy
- and then either push to the upstream master remote branch or make a pull request.
- Install Jekyll:
gem install jekyll - Run the jekyll server:
jekyll --server
You should have a server up and running locally at http://localhost:4000.
Please arrive 10-15 minutes before the start time so that you can set up your computer and test out the projector. Please figure out how to zoom in on text that might be too small from the back. Try command-plus-plus in the terminal and other applications. If you're an emacs user on a mac, you may need accessibility zoom enabled..
The Hacker Within isn't a class and no one is required to attend. We show up to have fun and to learn. Hopefully, your tutorial will teach something useful in a way that is enjoyable. To do this, please consider bringing your A-game. That is, find the enthusiastic tinkering problem-solver inside yourself (The Hacker Within yourself) and bring that version of yourself to share that enthusiasm with us. Enthusiasm is infectious!
It's all based on something @katyhuff forked. It's called Left. It uses jekyll. It was extracted from zachholman.com. That is, we use Left to lay out this jekyll.
Left is a clean, whitespace-happy layout for Jekyll.
