What kinds of resources shall we link to? @colececil Is that the intent of this link?

colececil commented 2 years ago

For this, I was thinking of having an organized list of game dev resources that those of us in the group have found useful. This could be stuff like tools, websites, articles, books, tutorials, etc. The goal is for this to be helpful for people just getting started with game dev who are trying to figure it out, and also for more experienced people who are looking for information on a specific topic.

I think this list will get pretty long over time, so we'll want to come up with a good way of making it organized and easily navigable. Potentially something like a tree view, with topics and subtopics you can expand to show lists of links and descriptions.

I used the Pencil prototyping app to create a mockup of the home page before I implemented it. If you want, one of us could mock up this page using that tool to decide on a design we like before implementing it. I'm also open to another approach if you prefer.

For implementation, I think we could use a Jekyll Collection to store and read the information about each resource.
