# UBC Web Ring ⚡🦅
Inspired by [se-webring.xyz](https://se-webring.xyz).
## What is this?
From [se-webring](https://github.com/simcard0000/se-webring)...
> A web ring is a group of websites linked together in a circular manner, centered around a common theme. They were a big thing in the 90s, as they were used as a sort of search engine optimization technique. The idea behind the SE Web Ring is to have a central place list all websites (personal sites and portfolios) of current and prior SE students and make them more discoverable.
So, this is that, except for UBC computer science students.
(Part of a different UBC department, such as ECE or Math? Consider forking this repository and making your own!)
## Adding your site
To add your site, you **must** be a current student or alumni of the Computer Science department at the University of British Columbia.
Then, do the following.
1. Insert the relevant information into [this file](https://github.com/michaelfromorg/ubc-webring/edit/main/src/data/websites.csv)
2. Open a pull request; fill out the template
3. (optional, but highly encouraged) Add the [web ring badge](#badge) to your site
Your (current or former) UBC enrollment will be verified upon submission!
## Running locally
Make sure you have `npm` installed. This project is using Node `lts/jod` (v22). The easiest way to get on the right version is to use `nvm`, and then run `nvm use` from the project root.
After that, get started the usual way.
```bash
npm install
npm run dev
# verify your changes
npm run build
npm run preview
```
## Badge
Here's snippets to add the badge to your website. The icon (in public) must be copied over to your project.
```html
```
Or, for a React app.
```jsx
import ubcCoaUrl from '@/assets/ubc-coa.svg'
export function UBCLogo() {
return (
)
}
```
