This repo has the source and related resources for the Cal Poly CS tutoring website.
The base template was pulled from here.
At the time of writing, the server lives at 54.71.224.129 (an Elastic IP from
AWS that should not change), and should (soon) be at
http://tutoring.csc.calpoly.edu. It is an Ubuntu 18 AWS instance. I (Jasper)
have set up Apache on there, but we can realistically set up anything we want.
Make sure to stay up to date on best security policies.
To add more users, I recommend using SSH key-only (no password) accounts. This is done with:
sudo adduser $USER --disabled-password
sudo adduser $USER admin # If they should get sudo accessAnd then adding their SSH pubic key to the new user's ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
file. Make sure to remove users/change logins as necessary to keep it locked
down.
Most of the Apache stuff was left as is, and there's plenty of docs on the web on how to manage Apache (although make sure to read a few different sources before tweaking stuff).

I (Jasper) largely just modified the provided templates from WARC by hand. They seem to have some kind of templating support, but I didn't look into it much. Main things to look out for are keeping the header links and other page-to-page shared content consistent.
The "Skip to Content" link expects a id=topH1 somewhere to mark the start of
content.
Deployments are done via DeployHQ and are automatically triggered when you push to mainline. Keep in mind we're limited to 10 per day, and see the Google Drive folder in the Slack for more information.
