Adding a tweet to the website

These are instructions for adding a tweet to the website.

Steps to follow

  • Fork this repo and clone locally.

  • The tweets are in the _src/tweets directory, using markdown.

    NOTE: Individual tweets put in a file. The file called tweet-NNNNN.md where NNNNN is greater than the largest number found in the folder. For example tweet-00005.md.

  • The images are in the _src/img/tweets directory

  • Markdown format for tweets

  • In addition to this if possible re-build the website in your local machine and see if the tweets show up correctly before creating a pull request.

    Detailed instructions for building the Website can be found in README.md.

  • Then git commit and push your changes, and make a pull request

    NOTE: Do NOT forget to add both the tweet and the respective image, before you commit.

    Always start new work by merging upstream.
