This repository contains the source code for the EpiForecasts website. This website is built with quarto and relies on automation wherever possible.

Used to generate this page: https://epiforecasts.io/people.html.

Adding a new team member only requires adding a new team member ID card in _data/team/. The README there details how to do it.

The 'people' page will automatically include the new member.

Used to generate this page: https://epiforecasts.io/software.html.

The 'software' page is automatically generated from the content of the epiforecasts r-universe. If you want to add a new package to the list, you thus have to add it in https://github.com/epiforecasts/universe/blob/main/packages.json with the property "display_website": true.

Used to generate this page: https://epiforecasts.io/pubs.html.

The list of publications is updated semi-automatically each month. Everything is explained in the relevant issue: epiforecasts#3

Used to generate this page: https://epiforecasts.io/blog.html (and the new blog post page).

Create a new folder YYYY-mm-dd-slug/ under posts/ and a file named index.md inside this new folder. You can start your index.md by copying one of the existing blog posts.

The blog is syndicated via an RSS feed: https://epiforecasts.io/blog.xml. People subscribed to this feed will automatically get a notification when you publish a new post.

Additionally, you should advertise it on twitter via the @epiforecasts (ask for the password if you don't it or ask someone to post it for you) and via your personal account if you have one.
