AiiDAlab landing page

Landing page for the AiiDAlab project. The website is currently under development and can be reached at: https://aiidalab.net .

Develop

This page is built with Jekyll version 3.3.1, but should support newer versions as well and based on the Hydra template.

Install jekyll and bundler:

sudo apt install ruby-dev
sudo gem install jekyll bundler
sudo gem install public_suffix -v '4.0.6' --source 'https://rubygems.org/'

Install the dependencies with Bundler:

$ bundle install

Run jekyll commands through Bundler to ensure you're using the right versions:

$ bundle exec jekyll serve

Editing

Hydra is already optimised for adding, updating and removing pages, staff, advice, company details and footer elements in CloudCannon.

Posts

  • Add, update or remove a post in the Posts collection.
  • The Staff Author field links to members in the Staff collection.
  • Documentation pages are organised in the navigation by category, with URLs based on the path inside the _docs folder.
  • Change the defaults when new posts are created in _posts/_defaults.md.

Contact Form

  • Preconfigured to work with CloudCannon, but easily changed to another provider (e.g. FormSpree).
  • Sends email to the address listed in company details.

Staff

  • Reused around the site to save multiple editing locations.
  • Add excluded_in_search: true to any documentation page's front matter to exclude that page in the search results.

Navigation

  • Exposed as a data file to give clients better access.
  • Set in the Data / Navigation section.

Footer

  • Exposed as a data file to give clients better access.
