DDPSC Maker Site
Welcome to the Donald Danforth Plant Science Center Maker Group webpage on GitHub!
To create a new blog, project, tutorial, or outreach post please follow the guide lines below. All thumbnail images are saved in the assets/img/blog/thumbs folder.
For the categories section of each post you can have any number of categories listed but please look at what current categories exist and how they are listed to make sure they link correctly!
For the Project Post you can load as many images as you want in the carousel but please limit to 5 or less images!
