Global Azure Communities

This is a repository for communities associating with Global Azure events to maintain their data hosted on the globalazure.net website.

Global Azure is and always was a global for fun, lots of fun, collaboration between many different community leaders around the globe - #GlobalAzure belongs to us all for shared joy!

We want to make sure any community who is interested in being part of #GlobalAzure have the chance to be present on our web site!

Note: Obviously, only put public information in this public repository! NO SECRETS!

How to use this repo

1. Fork this repo.
2. Find the right year folder. (Hint: For Global Azure 2022 the folder is '2022'.)
3. Copy the root folder "_template" and give it a repo unique folder name for example with the name of your community.
   • Example: Your community name is "Foo Community in Malmö Sweden" you could make your folder name in this repo this: './2022/FooCommunity/'.
   • You pick the folder name.
   • If it is already taken you need to choose another name.
   • This means don't be mean - unless you are the Azure Community for all of Sweden maybe don't pick the folder name 'AzureSweden'. If there are many Azure communities in Sweden, you don't want them to think you are full of yourself, right? ;~)
4. In the file data.json, enter the GitHub identities of the valid folder maintainers. These are people (GitHub identities) who, in the future, will be permitted to make PRs against the repo modifying the content of your community folder.
5. Update the rest of the data in data.json to match your community. We recommend using the English country name to better integrate with the Global Azure website.
6. Your community location is optional. To find your location, you can use Google Maps or a site like https://www.latlong.net
7. Your community logo: Place a square 500x500 px .png in the folder named {folder name}.png (example from above './2022/FooCommunity/FooCommunity.png').
8. Make a PR!
   • We review the PRs manually - automation will follow if this becomes too much of a burden. The process of pushing your information to our web site is best-community-effort-based and should be reasonably automatic.
   • If needs be notify @globalazure of your PR or contact us through the Global Azure site!
