[GRASS-dev] 37 years of GRASS GIS: celebrating with a new GRASS GIS website!

[Markus Neteler]

 Wednesday, July 29, 2020

[image: The new GRASS GIS website]
The new GRASS GIS website is out!

In occasion of its *37th birthday the GRASS GIS project* is proud to
present its *new website* ! The site has been
redesigned with modern tools to be responsive and also easier to maintain.
Content is more discoverable now and easy to browse too.
What’s cool

   - The *Learn*  page offers a curated list
   of tutorials in different languages and links to videos. The new Try
   online  section provides links
   to Binder and rollApp online applications that allow testing GRASS GIS
   without installing it.
   - Our long standing and *rich history*
    in the GIS and open source world
   is now presented in a much more attractive layout. Have a look at the
   timeline of *releases* 
   and *websites* !
   - The revamped *gallery of screenshots*
    shows some of GRASS GIS
   capabilities through visual examples.
   - Project resources easily reachable: mailing lists, wiki, RSS news
   feed, the various GitHub and docker repositories.

The technology

We chose a static format based on HUGO  and all the
code and content is hosted in a dedicated repo
 in GitHub. *Nicolas Bozon*
 designed the website theme and many others helped
with content curation and creation. In detail, the page content is now
written in markdown. Several times a day the website is automatically
deployed from the GitHub repository to our internet server at
https://grass.osgeo.org/ .
What’s next

With this new web technology and the availability of the code and content
in a public repository, we want to *encourage and simplify community
members’ participation*. If you want your GRASS GIS use cases, blog posts
and cool screenshots to be part of if, you only need to create a pull
request. No fear, we have a manual for contributions
.

We thank all the contributors for their input and help to see this project
finally realized! Special thanks to OSGeo  as well
as individuals  for their
financial support.

Stay tuned, there’s more yet to come!
