FAQ
What is the DaSL Collection?
DaSL Collection uses the GitHub API to gather repositories that we have worked on. It renders the table in a markdown-readable format.
How can I add my new course/content to the Collection?
Your repository must be created under the jhudsl, fhdsl, or datatrail-jhu organizations and meet the above criteria.
For repositories under other organizations, you can fork the repository into the jhudsl or fhdsl organizations. Example
What else is needed to list my repository?
The Collection workflow uses three important things to add courses to the DaSL Collection. These are the repository description, homepage, and topics tags.
Please note that:
- Repositories must be set to public to be listed in the Collection.
- The collection is divided up by three tags:
courses(general purpose courses),hutch-courses(Fred Hutch specific courses), andedtech-software. One of these tags is required to be listed. If you feel there is another applicable category that should be listed, please reach out to Ava.
