selsta: don't we have to move from gitlab -> github anyway? Dunno

netrik182: that's my fear too. I think that if we aim to have many questions, maby would be better to have a TOC and then all the questions already open (without needing to click on them)

.merge+ #1266

Added

I'm going for this structure instead ^

consider the 2 blocks on the top will be smaller and not everything is styled yet

Looks good. Then it'll be possible to have placeholders pointed to the answers

And use them outside getmonero as well

Is the site down?

Looks down to me.

I pinged fluffy

Datacenter has power outage

oof

Nice

netrik182: They are not in the screenshot but i already created anchors for that very reason

So we can point people to a specific question

This would handle what, site builds after pushing commits?

also when opening PRs

we could also deploy every PR/build to a testing area so that it easier to review things but I see problem with it getting abused

At least for me, getting build tests on pushes would be more useful, since I don't have a local site build setup

what do you consider a build test?

it tests if the website builds fine but you can’t open the website

Right, that's what I meant

But that's helpful for me, at least, for the few types of PRs that I make for things like updating the list of papers

right, this is possible but we have to make sure it doesn’t get abused

It'd be the same risks as the main project has, no?

what risks does the main project have?

I presume whatever limits GitHub places on CI actions

Isn't that what you meant?

Right now, every push I make for project branches have several CI actions for build and test

yes

I see risk in people linking to malware and then trying to link the website around

Is this a risk with just testing that the site builds?

no

Oh, you mean the risk only exists with some kind of test deployment

got it

yep

Yeah, that seems reasonable

and TBH for me at least, just knowing that I didn't screw up something obvious that breaks the build is good to know

it is better than nothing, yes

and it doesn't require that PRs have people test the build specifically

thereby removing some work

we could make a bot that deploys the site on a comment

so that people can check the changes first

just an idea

How would that work? Not sure I follow

a maintainer / trusted person writes !deploy and the bot would reply with a link were the website is deployed

so that it can get testsed

without having to build it manually

and then it dies on some timer?

but writing such a bot sounds like a lot of work with rather little benefit :)

yes the website would get deleted after 1 month or so

Isn't there some quote about how many programmers prefer writing tools than writing other projects? =p
