Update GLIC homepage

[ReneRanzinger]

• Display a world map of members, like GlySpace
• Move GLIC endpoint information to a separate page
• Update list of software and database
  • Group into topics
  • Point to Glyco@ExPASy, supplementing any tools/databases that are not there already
• Request form - what to do?
• Network of collaborator (who collaborates with who)
• big fat join button

HI,

I think most of the content changes should be fine and doable. We are a bit restricted if it comes to the general layout and metadata. The webpage is rendered out of the markdown files in the repository:

https://github.com/glycoinfo/GLIC/tree/master

not from HTML. Regarding the layout (remove banner, add menu) I think we will have to look into themes and the _config.yml file:

https://pages.github.com/themes/

That files seems to control the site builder (jekyll):

https://docs.github.com/en/pages/setting-up-a-github-pages-site-with-jekyll/about-github-pages-and-jekyll

There seems to be at least an option for a site menu:

Best, René
