As long as maintainers can catch and fix markup/branching mistakes, I feel like the contributor doesn't need to "deal" with any of Jekyll's or Git's unfriendliness. GitHub has a "preview" tab that shows both a rendered version of the markdown, and red/green highlights for your changes. However I can see how it gets trickier for the initial development of lessons, where changes have a bigger scale (and adding pages or links is not that friendly). But I am not sure what concretely can be improved in that area. I don't feel like things like wikis are that much more friendly, yet again I am a software developer who uses GIt 7 hours per day, so I am very interested in hearing about specific pain-points (and GitHub might be <https://blog.github.com/2018-09-18-introducing-experiments-an-ongoing-research-effort-from-github/> as well? GitLab's web IDE <https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/web_ide/> is also really good). -- Rémi ------------------------------------------ The Carpentries: discuss Permalink: https://carpentries.topicbox.com/groups/discuss/T95f755e418d1f2ac-M44adbaa4a739fe92d9dd65bb Delivery options: https://carpentries.topicbox.com/groups/discuss/subscription
