This repository contains the source code for [zeus.ugent.be](https://zeus.ugent.be), the website of Zeus WPI, the official student association of Informatics at Ghent University. The site is developed using [nanoc](https://github.com/nanoc/nanoc), which is actively developed by ex-Zeus member [ddfreyne](https://github.com/ddfreyne). The CSS framework used is [Bulma](https://bulma.io/). We primarily focus on using markdown for blogposts and events. Feel free to make a Pull Request with a blog post if you feel inspired and need an outlet!
These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes. See deployment for notes on how to deploy the project on a live system.
You will (momentarily) also need `pandoc` and `latex` to compile the reports from the board meetings. Refer to your OS package manager to install these things.
Go to <http://localhost:3000> to view the site! When developing, the site gets regenerated when editing files. A simple refresh will show the new changes.
Our official meeting reports are added as a submodule so they update automatically. For normal development, it is not required to initialize these. But if you want to deploy to production (or test the report generation), you will have to initialize the submodule.
Before using mediafiles on the site, upload them via https://zeus.ugent.be/zeuswpi/, our own custom [uploading service](https://github.com/ZeusWPI/ZeusWPI). You'll receive the server-filename which is available at the aforementioned url.
Once you've submitted a PR, it will automatically be deployed to (PR#).pr.zeus.gent, for easier reviewing.
