Recipes

This article base contains “recipes” of procedures and code snippets for handling day-to-da processes that may otherwise present obstacles to students in ESaaS.

This article uses Jekyll and GitHub Pages to maintain a publicly accessible site at [saasbook.github.io/courseware].

Contributing

1. Make sure you have Jekyll installed

2. Fork the repo github.com/saasbook/courseware

3. Change to the gh-pages branch

4. Create a new Markdown (.md) file in the _posts subdirectory containing your recipe. The frontmatter (first 6 lines) must look like this:

---
layout: page
title: "Name of your recipe"
category: rails
---

For category you should use whichever existing category on the Recipes page is most appropriate. Contact the repo owner if you feel a new category must be created.

1. If the post refers to other posts, be sure you follow Jekyll’s instructions for creating internal links – don’t hardcode absolute URLs.

2. As instructed here, run jekyll serve or jekyll build to rebuild the site and ensure your content renders properly.

3. Commit your changes on a branch other than gh-pages and then do a pull request to the gh-pages branch on the upstream repo.
