friendlycode / homepage Goto Github PK

I'm not sure if the site moved or the previous owner just let the domain name lapse, but the first link in README.md currently links to (according to google translate) a page written in Japanese about debt consolidation.

The image's aspect ratio isn't preserved when resizing.

• Is it possible crop instead of shrink/expand?

Regarding the slow loading image.

• If you save it with jpg's progressive compression option, it will get clearer while it loads instead of scanning line by line.
• It wont load any faster, but it will appear to load faster.

Let's see if we can't get rid of this extra black space:

GA reports the second-highest traffic on our home pages is "/?from=http://www.traffic2cash.xyz/"

Does anyone know where this comes from? Is it some kind of injected redirect?

@jnhanks Where can we get the original image?

Need to add our code of conduct to the website. The document is on our former Google Group website.

From CfA: https://github.com/codeforamerica/codeofconduct

Add blog functionality to site. Have 2-3 most current postings. Add blog to menu for older posts.

I'm guessing the registration on this site lapsed, otherwise it's been hacked. Either way, the project is currently linking to an unknown site in the project description at this point.

I added a bunch of topic tags to our projects (https://waffle.io/friendlycode/projects) that are all yellow (#fbca04). Potentially, we could use GitHub's API to include these tags on the homepage under each project.

Our Brigade Captains are Allen Clark ([email protected] or @ItsMeAllenClark) and Jean Hanks ([email protected]).

It was on the old site, but didn't have the time to get it up on the new site.

Load an image appropriate for the screen size.

I tried to do this myself without any luck. Thx.

We're hitting GitHub's rate-limiting when trying to populate the list of projects, which results in no output for that section of the home page.

We should cache the projects list locally, probably no more than once per day.

From GitHub's documentation:

Unauthenticated requests are limited to 60 requests per hour. 
Unauthenticated requests to the Search API are limited to 10 requests per minute.

Unauthenticated requests are associated with your IP address, and not the user making requests. 

Background on this issue:

@jacebrowning reports this console error when testing locally:
GET https://api.github.com/orgs/friendlycode/repos 403 (Forbidden)

{
  "message": "API rate limit exceeded for 152.160.140.86. (But here's the good news: Authenticated requests get a higher rate limit. Check out the documentation for more details.)",
  "documentation_url": "https://developer.github.com/v3/#rate-limiting"
