If github pages is acceptable then @apoelstra if you set up a hello wold repo https://pages.github.com/ I can take it from there (should only take about 5 minutes to do). |

Sure: https://github.com/rust-bitcoin/rust-bitcoin.github.io/ I have added you with "maintain" privileges. If anyone else woud like access please ping me here. I think while we're just playing it's fine to push to master or to do "open a PR and merge it yourself without acks" style development, though eventually we'll tighten that up. |

Hey guys !! I am new to rust and bitcoin both ecosystems. I spot this as a good and introductory way for me to get into it. Can I take some of the tasks from the list as a beginner and try to help here along with learning them? |

That would be very welcome! Right now we use the "Good first issue" label on issues to identify tasks. This discussion is about the website...we should probably have something on the website for newbies, but we probably can't have an up-to-date list of specific tasks since it would come out of sync too early. Is there anything in particular you'd like to see on the website that would be helpful for you as a newbie? |

All I've done so far is look at another mdbook page and assumed we could work it out. Would be awesome to get some help @Harshil-Jani! You could PR to this repo and I'll work out how to get it online. |

Hi team, I've hacked up a website using a repository on my own github account (that can and should be move to this org when everyone is happy with it). In the source code repo there is a For some reason the cookbook that @Harshil-Jani put together is not being served, it is working when I run Soon as I get an ok from y'all I'll point rust-bitcoin.org and www.rust-bitcoin.org at at. Once the repo moves to rust-bitcoin org we can add a github action to run the deploy script. Big thanks to @Harshil-Jani for kicking off the cookbook. |

If it was possible to have one repo it'd decrease the noise at the GH front page but if not it's OK. |

We can have a single repo but then the website source code is tied to github pages by way of the repo name, if we ever want to host it somewhere else (cough microsoft) then I think its better to have the soure in its own repo. Said another way, the current set up splits the source code and the built hosted code since the hosted code has to be in a repo with the name dictated by github but we may one day want to host it someplace else. If that is all overly complicated we can do the branch dance that @Harshil-Jani suggested, but that comes with its own complexities. I like the separation. |

Yes I registered the domain already, if there is some public open entity I am happy to transfer the domain to it so its not owned by me personally. |

No, if it weren't you personally I'd suggest me personally :). |

It feels to me like having some slogan would help. E.g. "Build Bitcoin applications with confidence!" |

Good idea, and I like your suggestion. Over time I'd like to see us use the blog to soapbox a bit about software supply chains -- talk about why we have our dependency policy or MSRV policy, talk about how we use crev (and how others can get started too!) once we start doing that, talk about building a deterministic compiler toolchain using guix (I think we could convince a guix expert to contribute such a thing once we get some more momentum), etc. Then we may want to rethink our slogal to be broader. |

My thoughts exactly, a soap box all of our own :) |

Hey @apoelstra can you please edit the settings in rust-bitcoin.github.io to add a custom domain (steps 1 - 4 https://docs.github.com/en/pages/configuring-a-custom-domain-for-your-github-pages-site/managing-a-custom-domain-for-your-github-pages-site#configuring-an-apex-domain). Please use rust-bitcoin.org I've configured www subdomain using CNAME I only just set the DNS so might need to propagate still. |

I'd like to propose we create a website www.rust-bitcoin.org containing, at first:
The main motivation is so we have somewhere to host the cookbook.
I'm useless at webdev, so unless someone else wants to do it, I'll do it using https://gohugo.io (probably with the sepctral theme) and host in on github pages and use lets encrypt for TLS. Hugo uses markdown for content so terminal-maxis can edit the site.
The whole thing will be open source and I'll just hack up a basic skeleton and hope that the community comes together and makes it better.
I've registered the domain already.
If anyone enjoys devops or webdev I'm totally happy to not be the one setting it up :)
