 EricxDu | Okay I see | 18:48:50 |
| EricxDu | I googled pandoc real quick | 18:49:06 |
| EricxDu | I have some experience now with github's and gitlab's CI systems as a website generator, but only from the user side. I learned just enough about Jekyll(?) to start a blog on Github, and just enough of Gitlab's CI (Alpine?) to serve up HTML files which I generate myself. | 18:53:39 |
| EricxDu | Enough to know that its probably slightly overkill but probably manageable. Does this Hugo thing we touch on periodically compare to Jekyll or Alpine? | 18:54:28 |
| EricxDu | Its my understanding that simple no one has yet put in the work to make Hugo part of our pipeline | 18:54:53 |
 emorrp1 | for the record, I deliberately avoided writing up a script any more complicated than what's in the readme (like your markup) in the hope it would force someone to actually use a proper tool, rather than a kludge | 19:02:44 |
| emorrp1 | Yes, Hugo and Jekyll are both SSGs and are both packaged in Debian, so either is fine | 19:04:53 |
| EricxDu | Cool cool. Well in my experience Jekyll takes a bit of learning to set up properly, but beyond that contributing is as easy as dropping ".md" or ".markdown" files in the correct spots. Jekyll's automagic takes care of the rest. | 19:10:41 |
| EricxDu | Hugo is... probably similar? | 19:11:03 |
| EricxDu | * Hugo is... probably similar | 19:11:23 |
| emorrp1 | yep, it's exactly the same - the person doing the work gets to decide how it's done! | 19:12:26 |
| EricxDu | :-D | 19:13:14 |
| emorrp1 | * yep, it's exactly the same - the person doing the work gets to decide how it's done and with which tools! | 19:17:07 |
 hribhrib | EricxDu: just ping me if you are ready, than we can set something up on the server for autogeneration and deployment! the current approach with the public branch was just suteable for the current system | 20:35:33 |
| EricxDu | hribhrib: cool what's your timezone? | 21:33:39 |

| EricxDu | hribhrib: ping. Okay to be clear, I don't personally know how to set up Jekyll as an administrator, for instance. I did manage to learn a little bit about how to customize default config files and themes though. That's about all I could contribute. | 01:37:48 |

hribhrib: cool what's your timezone? currently UTC +1, i am from Austria ;) | 08:38:16 |
 spongycake | It seems louder then most groups being disable JavaScript. With SSG you are likely to go Jamstack approach for advanced functionality. I expect the answer is cost, however I'll ask anyhow. Isn't a server side render more appealing choice?

| xilef | What kind of content is now needed for the website? I want to do/write sth but I dont know what to do and where to start :/ | 20:26:25 |
| xilef | Hm I remember emorpp1 saying sth about this recently | 20:26:56 |
| * xilef scrolls through the Organisation chat | 20:27:22 |
| spongycake | From the meeting it sounded like we had two target audiences. Game Devs looking at tools / ways to build libre games. Then the more casual players looking seeking either game recommendations or social gatherings to matchmake | 20:40:22 |
| xilef | Okay | 20:44:08 |
| spongycake | Maybe an article on how to participate in libre games? I.e. joining a community or what it means to have freedoms attached to the game | 20:44:10 |
