hackercouch

HackerCouch is couchsurfing for Hackers. Here's how it goes:

  • Fork this repo
  • Add your own markdown file with your nick (perhaps twitter/github handle?) in the _couches directory
  • You file a Pull Request on github
  • Make sure the build passes
  • Go check hackercouch.com the next time you are travelling.

See add.md for more detailed instructions.

The idea isn't new, it has been tried before as well. The reason I'm trying this again is:

  • I love the idea of a Fork->PR->Merge->Publish flow with almost zero effort.
  • hackercouch.com was available.

I also made a similar PR-based DNS redirect service called lightsaber recently.

Development

HackerCouch uses Jekyll Collections, which is a feature I really like. Hosted on github-pages, duh. Builds use travis, and make sure that the site has proper html before its deployed
