The official repo for a project involving a crowdsourced DFIR book. The main purpose of this book is to give anyone interested an opportunity to write a chapter of a book to get their name out there, get a publication on their resume with an actual ISBN number, and ideally lower the bar for people to contribute something back to the DFIR Community. Want to write a chapter? Let me know and let's make it happen!

Standardized cover page for each chapter? #29

Closed AndrewRathbun closed 2 years ago

AndrewRathbun commented 2 years ago

I like what @jdwilkins75 did with including a link to his Twitter so people can follow him. Same with the online presence added by @abrignoni in his section. I also like how @jijames and I have images on the first page of our respective chapters. I feel like we should have some sort of standardized first page for each chapter, especially given that this book is not written by one person. Each chapter is its own entity from the other parts of the book, if that makes sense.

Loosely thinking something like this

Chapter Name Goes Here

[text](image_filename.jpg)

By: FirstName LastName

**something should go here for Twitter or whatever preferred social media presence**

Anything more? Anything less? Anything different? Let me know your thoughts!

Seems good with me, I do think we should include the chapter number alongside the title.

Chapter XX

Chapter XX

I thought so too but when I viewed it in a PDF and in the table of contents, it would be duplicative a bit. I'll post snips of examples here in a bit.

AndrewRathbun commented 2 years ago

Alright, let's see what we think about these examples:

# Chapter # - Chapter Title

## Subheadings goes here
## Subheadings goes here
## Subheadings goes here
## Subheadings goes here
## Subheadings goes here
## Subheadings goes here

Content goes here. Remember, only what is put here is parsed by Leanpub to generate the PDF/MOBI/EPUB files.
# Chapter number goes here

## Chapter Title

### Subheadings goes here
### Subheadings goes here
### Subheadings goes here
### Subheadings goes here
### Subheadings goes here
### Subheadings goes here
### Subheadings goes here

Content goes here. Remember, only what is put here is parsed by Leanpub to generate the PDF/MOBI/EPUB files.

ignore the bad grammar in the above examples, I whipped them up very hastily, but it gets the point across. Thoughts on which one (or option C) that we should use?

Chapter # - Chapter Title... PLEASE

stark4n6 commented 2 years ago

Yes, agreed with Josh

Chapter # - Chapter Title looks the cleanest

AndrewRathbun commented 2 years ago

I agree with all the above, as well. Unless a few others disagree, then we'll roll with this. I'll make the changes now to set the stage for others.
