WSSCI-Conference-Template

A template for WSSCI meeting websites built using Jekyll.

Usage

Before the meeting, modify:

• The data file _data/conference.yml that configures conference information, including dates, location information, banner images (placed in assets/images/slideshow), deadlines, sponsors, and committee members
• Conference intro and description in index.md
• Call for papers text and link in cfp.md
• Submission information in submission.md
• Venue information in venue.md
• Registration information in registration.md

When the program has been determined, edit or create a schedule YAML file (_data/schedule.yml). You can use the _data/old-schedule.yml as a formatting reference. If you have program in PDF format, add this to the program_link field in the configuration file.

You should only need to edit the Markdown files (extension .md). The HTML files (organization.html, program.html) read from the configuration files.

To build and view the website locally, run bundle exec make serve, then use the resulting server address (e.g., http://127.0.0.1:4000/). (You may need to run bundle install first to install dependencies.)
