This repository hosts the productive environment of the AARS website.

Carrd export

Originally, the site was built using Carrd, which creates a single HTML file which includes all the styling and scripts. That site was then refactored and moved to this repository.

In some cases, e.g. getting inspiration for icons or styling, using Carrd might still be useful. However, the card instance can no longer be exported and directly imported here.

The calendar

The calendar is implemented with Vue.js. Since the calendar itself is split into multiple components, and therefore needs to be imported using the import statement, we need a small http server. That is because, the import statement does not work over the file:// protocol, only https://.

How to start the server

1. Install Node.js
2. Open a terminal
3. Switch into the root directory of this project
4. Run the command npx serve
5. Open the browser at the URL the command outputs (usually http://localhost:3000)
6. Navigate to the calendar

Updating cube events

Modify the file ./calendar/data/event.json following these samples:

    { "start": "2025-03-01T14:00:00+01:00", "end": "2025-03-01T17:00:00+01:00", "location": "zueghusplatz", "eventStatus": "cancelled" },
    { "start": "2025-04-05T14:00:00+02:00", "end": "2025-04-05T17:00:00+02:00", "location": "hirschenplatz", "eventStatus": "confirmed" },
    { "start": "2025-10-11T14:00:00+02:00", "end": "2025-10-11T17:00:00+02:00", "location": "bellevue", "eventStatus": "in-planning" }

Please note:

• The status must be in-planning, cancelled or confirmed
• Events before the last Sunday in March have +01:00 for CET
• Events between the last Sunday in March and the last Sunday in October use +02:00 for CET
• Events after the last Sunday in October use +01:00 for CET

The guides

For more text intensive sites, a Github Pages template is applied on markdown files.

The following files are relevant:

• _config.yml: basic configuration, such as theme selection
• _includes/*.html: additional content that is added to the guides
• assets/css/style.scss: contains style changes for the guides
• guides/*.md: the actual content of the guides
• guides/assets/*: other assets, such as images, that are only used in the guides

To easily create a table of content over a markdown file, this generator can be used.
