HaCS

This is the website for HaCS - the Hackathon and Computing Society at Birmingham City University. This website acts as our central resource for content and as a playground for our members to try out new ideas and work together with others.

We're open to contributions and are always improving our site. If there are any suggestions you might have or something you'd like to work on yourself feel free to open an issue.

If you are a BCU student and would like to contribute to this site but don't know how yet, it might be a good idea to drop us a message on our Facebook group or drop into one of our workshops.

Building

We're using Jekyll to build the site. If you want to test locally you will need ruby and jekyll to be installed.

Once you have ruby installed:

gem install bundler

To run the jekyll build (inside this directory):

bundle exec jekyll serve

Testing

To run the test scripts you can run ./tests/htmlproofer

make sure that htmlproofer is executable chmod +x ./test/htmlproofer

Contributing

This project is targeted to members of HaCS or BCU students. You are welcome to contribute issues or feature suggestions however we would prefer HaCS members take on building and implementing said features.

As this project aims to be beginner friendly, please keep a friendly, open and collaborative attitude when communicating on this repository, and be respectful of everyone's abilities and ideas.
