Creating a GTN News post
Saskia HiltemannIf you have created a new tutorial, running an event, published a paper around training, or have anything else interesting to share with the GTN community, we encourage you to write a News item about it!
News items will show up on the GTN homepage and in the GTN news feed.
Creating the news post
Have a look at the existing news items in the news/_posts/ folder of the GTN repository for some examples.
A news post is a markdown file that looks as follows:
---
layout: news
title: "New Tutorial: My tutorial title"
tags:
- new tutorial
- transcriptomics
contributors:
- shiltemann
- hexylena
tutorial: "topics/introduction/tutorials/data-manipulation-olympics/tutorial.html"
cover: "path/to/cover-image.jpg" # usually an image from your tutorial
coveralt: "description of the cover image"
---
A bit of text containing your news, this is all markdown formatted,
so you can do **bold** and *italic* text like this, and links look
like [this](https://example.com) etc.
Describe everything you want to convey here, can be as long as you
need.
Make sure the filename is structured as follows: year-month-day-title.md, so for example: 2022-10-28-my-new-tutorial.md
