# The worldwidetelescope.org “user” website
The user-facing portion of the
[WorldWide Telescope](https://worldwidetelescope.org/home/) (WWT) website:
### https://worldwidetelescope.org/home/
This includes the static user-facing pages but not the
[web client](https://github.com/worldwidetelescope/wwt-web-client) or the
[legacy API](https://github.com/worldwidetelescope/wwt-website) or the
[Communities](https://github.com/worldwidetelescope/wwt-website) component of
the web app.
You can monitor metrics for the WWT web services on [the public WWT metrics
dashboard][dashboard], made possible by support from [Datadog].
[dashboard]: https://p.us3.datadoghq.com/sb/cf4ddee0-e5ae-11ec-90f8-da7ad0900003-c64423f0e5e0627e2eb777abe3e591b0

The WorldWide Telescope project uses an [open governance
model](https://worldwidetelescope.org/about/governance/) and is fiscally
sponsored by [NumFOCUS](https://numfocus.org/). Consider making a
[tax-deductible donation](https://numfocus.org/donate-for-worldwide-telescope)
to help the project pay for developer time, professional services, travel,
workshops, and a variety of other needs.
## Quick Start for the Initiated
This site is written in [CommonMark Markdown] and processed with [Zola]. Zola
is distributed as a single executable so it is ridiculously
[easy to install][install-zola]. Once you have Zola all you have to do is run
```
zola serve
```
to build the site and serve it locally for testing. The command `zola check`
will check the build and verify that outgoing links are valid. Zola has
[lots of documentation][zola-docs].

[Zola]: https://getzola.org/
[install-zola]: https://www.getzola.org/documentation/getting-started/installation/
[zola-docs]: https://www.getzola.org/documentation/getting-started/overview/
Merges to `master` will be published automatically using WWT’s continuous
deployment infrastructure.
## URL structure
The files in this repository drive the following URL paths:
- `/about`
- `/assets`
- `/connect`
- `/download`
- `/home`
- `/learn`
- `/style.css`
- `/terms`
- `/use`
Note that the root path `/` is handled specially in WWT: users are redirected
either to `/webclient/` or `/home/` depending on a preference cookie.
Routing in the reverse proxy is case-insensitive, as were the URLs in the
original app backed, so the generated website provides numerous capitalized
aliases to the above too.
