HOW TO CONTRIBUTE

It's super easy.

The easiest way is to write a post in Markdown and email it to us at team@jruby.org.

The more self-lead way is to follow these few steps:

Fork the repo on Github
Clone that repo on to your computer

git clone git@github.com:YOUR-USER-NAME/blog.jruby.org.git
Create a file in /_posts
Name that file using the format of YYYY-MM-DD-Your-Post-Slug.md
At top top of that file include a bit of meta data in YAML.

Like this:

---
layout: post
title: Why I Love JRuby
subtitle: And Why You Will Too
canonical: http://example.com/2011/09/01/jruby-love
author: Shane Becker
email: veganstraightedge@gmail.com
---

REQUIRED FIELDS: layout, title (if it's different from your file name slug), email, name
OPTIONAL FIELDS: subtitle, canonical (this is the URL of the article on your site if you're reposting an article of yours)
Write your awesome post!
Add and commit that file in your local repo git commit -a "New Blog Post"
Push to Github git push origin gh-pages
Send a pull request to us
That's it!

After your first contribution, you'll get added to the blog.jruby.org repo as a committer at which point you won't have to do the fork / pull request nonsense.

Or... if you're totally awesome and have the site to prove it, send me an email with a link to your previous writing on the subject and I'll just add you as a contributor.

Let's do this thing!
