Talks

To add an upcoming talk create a new file in the _posts directory with the following naming pattern: YYYY-MM-DD-talk_title.md. The date should be the date of the talk/meetup.

The file must contain the following front matter.

---
layout: post
title: The name of the talk
speakers:
  - szechyjs
  - belongstorachel
---
A mix of HTML/Markdown content here to add any addition details about the talk.

The speakers slugs should match the keys in the _data/speakers.yml file.

Speakers

To minimize duplication of speaker information across talks, speaker information is consolidated to the speakers data file: _data/speakers.yml.

slug: # a unique name to link speaker to talks
  name: Speaker Name
  linkedin: linkedin-username
  github: gh-username
  twitter: user

Deploying

GitHub actions should automatically deploy the site when changes are pushed to the main branch.
