Here’s the first blog post for the Github organisation associated with the german python forum.

It is meant to be the home of software projects started at the forum, from within the community there. The goal is to learn about collaboration and developing software in a team, using modern approaches and tools.

Meta discussion takes place at the python-forum Softwareprojekte forum thread. Discussions about individual projects are tagged with #pydesw in the thread title.

This website is also a project, which means it can be used for blog posts and announcement by (sub)projects. It is made with Jekyll and lives in its own Github repository.

Jekyll uses Markdown and you can use Github’s flavor of the markup language to typeset source code with syntax highlighting:

def print_hi(name):
    print('Hi,', name)

print_hi('Tom')
#=> prints 'Hi, Tom' to standard output.
