This workshop teaches best practices for Research Data Management with DataLad. Content for this workshop was developed by the DataLad team, while the workshop infrastructure is based on materials developed by The Carpentries (distributed under a CC-BY license).
For extensive information on how the Carpentries Lesson styles template is set up and how to customize it, see: https://carpentries.github.io/lesson-example/index.html.
The _config.yml
file in the repo root allows several options for customization.
The carpentry
variable is set to swc
(line 10), meaning that for any updates where
we want DataLad-specific content to display we will have to ensure these are edited wherever swc
-specific logic occurs.
Edit the index.md
file in the repo root.
Add a Markdown file per new episode in the _episodes
directory.
The _episodes/01-formatting.md
file can be used as a template for new
episodes, as it already contains examples of most formatting options /
components that will likely be needed.
Prepend sequential numerical values to the filename in order to specify episode order.
Episodes will automatically appear in order as part of the schedule on the main page.
To preview the changes locally, follow the instructions from Carpentries lesson example.
