Simplify, refactor, and parameterize the main event file #5

Closed bernhold closed 3 years ago

bernhold commented 3 years ago

Right now, the files in the events collection contain a lot of content. It would be nice to parameterize and abstract this file so that it is as short as possible to facilitate reuse.

Much of the content should probably be refactored into the separate event-specific directory where we're currently capturing the hands-on instructions. Resources should be moved over here and separated into one file per module.

include_relative or https://github.com/mslinn/jekyll-flexible-include-plugin might be useful to make this work as we want.

We've got this done. All event data is in the _data directory. We've eliminated the events collection. Some things are more cumbersome, but everything seems to work. While we never advertised the event-specific pages, they have all been redirected to the new locations.

There is surely room for some refactoring and other improvements, but we'll take those on later.
