Any progress @flexiondotorg?

You wanna host yourself, in cloud somewhere or simply here on github?

What we wanna use?

Own domain name?

• best

Github domain name?

• good
  • For whoole quickemu project? (http://quickemu-project.github.io/)
    • Then create repository .github in quickemu-project organization

That's special repository for personal/organization profile

Will be shown on quickemu-project github page.
which is currently empty

• Only for quickemu? (http://quickemu.github.io/)
  • Then create gh-pages branch in this repo
  • Or we can push it from here...

Of course domain name is easily changeable anytime

What we push first?

• Just same README.md as here (as most projects do)

So look like only show stopper here is that choice...

Otherwise is just one mouse click away... here

I think a Hugo static site on GitHub pages would be sufficient. Other than providing a landing page, other ideas are:

• A page for the daily quickget configuration can be published as .json and .csv
• A page for the current failing quickget tests

Saw that this was an issue with Help Wanted. How can I apply to help?

[flexiondotorg]

@nfowlie I'm not sure yet because I haven't decided if creating a website is the way to go yet.

But if we do, I'd like to use Hugo and the Coder theme because the site should be minimal and really just serve as a jumping-off point for the projects.

If I create a repo for the website, are you interested in sending pull requests to get things up and running? GitHub pages (no CNAME for a real domain) is what I'm thinking.

[nfowlie]

@flexiondotorg absolutely!
I'd love to contribute to a project I love.

@flexiondotorg I now have some free time to dedicate to this feature. Would you be able to create a repo for this and move the task into the In Progress column.

Thank you.

@nfowlie I've created a repo for the website here:

• https://github.com/quickemu-project/quickemu-project.github.io

It is a minimal Hugo site using the Hugo Coder theme with just enough configuration to function as a landing page.

Basic CI is wired up along with the usual community standards. The site is here:

• https://quickemu-project.github.io/

I've created a "Webwranglers" team and I've invited you to join 🎟️

I'll close this issue and we can collaborate on over here:
