Live code boston

After much procrastination, the Greater Boston live coding community has an official website!

Recurring Events

We have a meetup on the 2nd Sunday of every month to practice live coding, learn new things, and generally hang out with friends.

We also have a recurring event called Viscera at Zuzu's in Cambridge on the 5th Wednesday of of the month (there isn't one every month).

Call for participation

We are looking for ideas on what members of our community want from a website!

I (ludens) think it would be nice to set up:

Contributing

The source code project for this site is available on sourcehut at ~glfmn/livecode.boston.

You don't need an account to participate, you can send patches or start discussion via email using the ~glfmn/livecode.boston-devel mailing list.

You can also subscribe to ~glfmn/livecode.boston-announce to get infrequent updates about the website.

The stub site uses a static site generator called zola which is pretty easy to install, and decently easy to use. Once we have more of the site in place, we will have deatiled contribution instructions!

I am inclined to avoid setting up a CMS or anything too complex. With sourcehut, we can set things up so community members can easily submit new events or posts via email, to automatically redeploy the site through sourcehut pages. I am open to alternate static site generator ideas though! Preferably it should take less than 3 minutes to get set up on a new computer, to make it easy for people to contribute.
