This repository contains the website of the Fachschaft IWI at the University of Applied Sciences Karlsruhe (HKA). Welcome!
You're most likely a student at the IWI faculty of HKA. Glad to have you here!
We develop both the design and the website setup ourselves. (Our website is statically generated using Next.js, which is a React framework.) All parts of the website, foremost the content, need constant care and maintenance. Pick an area you feel comfortable in and start contributing!
And even if you're new to all this, and haven't worked with git, Node.js and all that other stuff before: This is a great opportunity to get to know them :)
If you've read this far, you probably want to do something. That's great! Everything we do is volunteer work, and we are excited for everyone who's willing to jump in. We hope this list helps with your decision on what to do:
- First, read our contribution guidelines
- Create and update content (such as News, FAQs, or pages)
- Work on the design
- Implement a new technical feature
- Understand and improve deployment, testing, and overall workflow
Prerequisites for development: Node.js and a package manager (npm
or yarn
).
If you just want to add content, you don't need to install all this necessarily. However, you won't be able to see the rendered results of your changes.
git clone <repo-url> iwi-website
cd iwi-website
npm install
npm run dev
You're ready to go! The website will be available at http://localhost:3000. For everything else, see the documentation.
