Quick-Start Guide#

Welcome to the HaCLAthon! We invite an interdisciplinary mix of domain experts, planners, and coders. Our goal is to make participation as easy as possible.

Step 1#

To get things moving, we want to know what you are interested in. Your only task for this: Send us your name and a 1-sentence description of an idea, a map, or a story you’d like to share.

We will add your idea to our Community Notice Board.

How to reach us:

  1. Email: Send a quick message to fdz@ioer.de.

  2. Chat: Join our Matrix Channel via Element: https://matrix.to/#/#HaCLAthon:tu-dresden.de

  3. GitHub: Create an Issue in our Repository.

Step 2#

You do not need to be a developer to contribute. Choose the path that fits your comfort level:

Path A: Code & Maps

Jupyter in the Cloud (No local setup!) Best for: Working with data, spatial analyses, or interactive maps.

  • Workflow: Click a button to launch a Jupyter Notebook right in your browser (Jupyter4NFDI or Google Colab). Write your code or tweak ours.

  • Submission: Choose your comfort level. Simply download your file and upload it to our drop-folder (no Git required), or use Git to submit a Pull Request.

Path B: The Writer

Browser CMS. Best for: Direct text editing in the browser.
