===================

Think Distributed: The Distributed Systems Podcast

## Getting Started

This website uses [Middleman](http://middlemanapp.com/). 

  - Install Dependencies: `bundle install`

  - Development: `bundle exec middleman server`

  - Build Static Site: `bundle exec middleman build`

## Add an episode

Episodes are written in [HAML](http://haml.info/) with [Markdown](http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/syntax) filters.

The title and heading are written in markdown like so:

```haml

:markdown

  # Consensus

  A discussion about the problem of consensus in distributed computing, focusing on the Raft algorithm developed by Diego Ongaro and John Ousterhout at Stanford University.

```

Then the embed links for SoundCloud and Youtube (HTML is valid HAML so it's fine to just cut and paste):

```haml

```

NOTE: You should add `&color=2489a5&auto_play=false&theme_color=f0f0f0&sharing=true` to the Soundcloud embed URL and `?showinfo=0&color=ffffff&rel=0` to the Youtube embed URL.

Next, you add the panelists. Currently I have them stored in an array, where each panelist is a hash with a name, title, and twitter. Each hash is then rendered with a panel_member partial:

``` haml

%h2 Panel

- panel = [{:name=> "Christopher Meiklejohn", :title=> "Software Engineer at Basho Technologies", :twitter=>"cmeik"}, {:name=> "Justin Sheehy", :title=> "CTO at Basho Technologies", :twitter=>"justinsheehy"}, {:name=> "Peter Bailis", :title=> "Graduate Student at UC Berkeley", :twitter=>"pbailis"}, {:name=> "Diego Ongaro", :title=> "Graduate Student at Stanford University", :twitter=>"ongardie"}, {:name=> "Andrew Stone", :title=> "Software Engineer at Basho Technologies", :twitter=>"andrew_j_stone"}]

%ul

  - panel.each do |member|

    = partial "layouts/panel_member", :locals=>{:member => member}

```

N.B. We'll need to add photo to this as well. And potential abstract it out further to avoid redundancy

Lastly, show notes are listed under a markdown filter:

```haml
