This repo is a community effort to try to bring the libGDX site up to date and make it representative of what libGDX is capable of. The deployed page can be found here.

If you want to collaborate, you first need to clone this repo.

This page is a Jekyll blog, hosted via GitHub Pages. All pages and posts need to have a YAML frontmatter, for example this one:

---
permalink: /best_url_path_4_ever/
title: "Super Nice Page Title"
---

After this frontmatter, everything can be written in markdown. Github offers a very concise explanation on how one can add posts and pages: https://docs.github.com/en/github/working-with-github-pages/adding-content-to-your-github-pages-site-using-jekyll

The minimal mistakes theme, that is used here, also supports some nice features (galleries, header images, tables of content), which are detailed here: https://mmistakes.github.io/minimal-mistakes/docs/quick-sb
