Perl6.org

It is rendered with mowyw every 15 minutes, so updates to the repository should also result in an update of https://perl6.org

Guidelines

Here are some guidelines that you should respect when changing this site:

• Only link to up-to-date information. Feel free to delete outdated information — it is often more confusing than helpful.

• Be nice.

• Don't hesitate to link to pages you wrote yourself, if they are helpful to a broader Perl 6 audience.

• If you have a Perl 6 blog, get it included in the planetsix.perl.org feed instead. Talk to [Coke] on #perl6.

• If you intend to change the layout, consider what happens when:

  • user's viewport is small (e.g. mobile device)
  • user resizes window

• We use Bootstrap3 and jQuery. Whenever possible, please use the facilities these frameworks provide, instead of rolling out something custom.

• We use SASS in style.scss to generate style.css. You can do that by running sass style.scss:style.css inside the source directory (add --watch flag to make it watch for changes and re-generate the CSS file). CSS is still valid SASS; if you don't know SASS, just write plain CSS. If you cannot run sass, please add your changes to style.css and ping @zoffixznet to add your styles to style.scss.

• We support the current and previous major releases of Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer (Edge), and Safari. Please test layout changes. Lacking actual browsers to test in, you can use browsershots.org or browserstack.com.

• We spell "Perl 6" consistently with a non-breaking space. If you don't already have one, go get an editor with decent Unicode support.

• Speaking of which, all pages are served as UTF-8.

• If you create a new page, please link to the URL without the ".html" extension.

Build

To run this site locally:

• Install the following modules:

  cpanm App::Mowyw Text::VimColor Plack

• Run the following commands to populate the ./online folder and launch a local web server for testing:

  mowyw
  plackup
  

• Open http://localhost:5000/index.html in your browser

Tip: if you remove source/archive directory, mowyw generation will run a lot faster. Useful for checking frequently-made changes.
