Documentation

One way to get involved with the project is to add and improve the documentation of the project. As the Community grows, the numbers of people who will be attending, the number of events, and the overall activity on the Platform is expected to grow. Clear and concise documentation ensures that the team is able to effectively communicate how the Platform should be used to the respective audience.

As you can see, a part of the documentation is meant for volunteers who actively manage events and such in the Community and the rest of the documentation is oriented meant for the rest of the Community e.g. event participants. Please keep this in mind when adding or improving the documentation.

The documentation is built from Markdown files in the fossunited GitHub repository. The documentation is built using the MkDocs Python project and uses the Material for MkDocs and the MkDocs GLightbox plugins. Every time changes are made in the develop branch to the docs/* folder on the Git repository, a GitHub Action gets triggered, which builds and pushes the documentation to the gh-pages branch, to be served using GitHub pages.
