Broken link in Processing's home page #488

Closed trikaphundo closed 11 months ago

Problem

A broken link in the Processing's home page: link to sketchpad.

  1. Visit https://processing.org.
  2. Go to the bottom of the page: "See what others are making".
  3. Click on the link "Studio Sketchpad".
  4. Notice how the address (sketchpad.cc) is not resolved.

Expected behaviour

Either the link takes you to a valid website or the link is removed from Processing's home page.

Hi @trikaphundo,

Thanks for flagging the issue with the Studio Sketchpad link. Sketchpad is (was?) a tool to collaboratively create interactive visualizations in your browser using Etherpad.

Let's ping Sketchpad creator Ari Bader-Natal (@aribn) to ask whether the platform is still operating or if it closed permanently.

Appreciate your keen eye and contributions.

Cheers, Raphaël de Courville Community Lead, Processing Foundation

I just restarted the server process, and all Sketchpad links should be reachable again.

@trikaphundo @SableRaf Verifying that the link in the footer of the processing.org site works again.

Thanks @aribn for the quick response!
