hmm... not totally surprised that heroku is failing since we haven't touched the site in FIVE YEARS! Anyone want to turn this into a github pages site? just moved the repo from railsbridge -> bridgefoundry: https://github.com/bridgefoundry/teachingkids-site
Also, feel free to update the logo and other things. As part of the re-factor, the Teaching Kids project is a Bridge Foundry project, rather than RailsBridge. It was mostly Ruby and other kids-focused coding stuff, rather than Rails.
alternately, we could make it a category on the Bridge Foundry blog (then re-direct the old site to bridgefoundry.org/kids and create a page there that features the category of blog posts and resources) -- a bit more work, but maybe easier to maintain
I'd be willing to help with this, but it's hard without being able to see what the original content looked like.
Should I just fix it up and deploy to my own heroku instance in order to view it? Of course, if I do that, it might be ready to be redeployed to the existing site.
@audiodude added you to the 'teachingkids' app on heroku, if that helps. I'm afraid all we've got now is the source code and misty memories... I would just try to get it working locally. The main goal would be to display the posts. The lists of resources in src are pretty short and could probably be consolidated. It was basically a blog with a couple of content pages... which is why I thought it might make sense to simply add a category or something on the bridgefoundry blog and a page on the site.
Thanks so much for being willing to take this on!
@ultrasaurus thanks for adding me, but I don't think it "took". I don't see the app in my Heroku dashboard, and I didn't receive any email that I had access.
I'll try to get it running locally.
Okay I got it running locally. It looks really outdated....
Okay I got the site running on Heroku again, after upgrading its stack. Agree that this should be integrated somehow with the main site, since it's all just jekyll.
The Teaching Kids link under "Other Initiatives" in index.html appears to be broken. I couldn't find an updated link.
