How to use this template:
- Make sure you have created a new organization first following https://github.com/uit-no/github-course-guide#github-organization.
- Now you can generate a website repository from this template: https://github.com/uit-no/github-course-template/generate. Remember to specify that the repository should be created in the new organization.
- For the "Owner" select the newly created organization. For the "Repository name" use (organization name).github.io, e.g.: "uit-inf-2202-f16.github.io". Select "Public". Leave "Include all branches" unchecked, click "Create repository from template".
- In the newly created repository adjust information in
_config.yml
. - In the newly created repository modify the syllabus in the
index.md
file.
Your course website will automatically appear at https://(organization name).github.io/.
You and the TAs can now update the syllabus, add lecture notes, and so on by pushing to the repository.
After you modify the repository sources (_config.yml
, index.md
), GitHub Pages
will automatically regenerate HTML pages.
If possible, creating a redirect in the UiT web server makes it easier to remember the course website address. The inf-2202 course is for example redirected from: http://www.cs.uit.no/kursinfo/inf2202
