Research direction

Open _projects/tdm-calculator.md and find the leadership entry for Abby Rivard, whose github-handle value is empty. Set it to abbyrivard, then run the site with Docker and check that the project page at /projects/tdm-calculator looks unchanged at all screen sizes. Done means the field is filled in and the page renders the same as before.

Overview

We need to populate the 'github-handle' variable with the correct GitHub username for each member of the leadership team. Eventually github-handle will replace the github and picture variables, reducing redundancy in the project file.

Action Items
  • Open the file _projects/tdm-calculator.md in the IDE [^1]
  • Replace:
- name: Abby Rivard
  github-handle:

with

- name: Abby Rivard
  github-handle: abbyrivard
  • Using docker, confirm that the appearance of the project webpage is unchanged at all screen sizes. The project webpage URL can be found below under Resources.
For Merge Team
  • Release the dependency for this issue in #8428. If all the dependencies have been completed, follow the Merge Team instructions on that issue.
