How to dev mitvis website

• Install dependencies

npm install

• Serve your content

npm run dev

• Check http://localhost:5173/ for your content
• Make changes and then submit a PR; tag @arvind for review/approval.
  • (Once a PR is merged, the site will automatically build a static version of the website and deploy it to the csail-build branch. This branch will then eventually be slurped up to go live on CSAIL servers by a cron job.)

Adding a group member

Edit these files:

• Add an entry in src/data/people.json. Ideally, your key should be your MIT Kerberos.

Add these files:

• Add a square photo to static/imgs/people
  • filename must match the key you used for your entry in src/data/people.json
  • extension must be .jpg

Adding a paper

Add these files:

• Add <my-paper>.pdf to static/pubs
• Add a thumbnail image, <my-paper>.png, to static/imgs/thumbs. It should be 640x360 or similar widescreen (16:9) aspect ratio.
• Add a teaser image, <my-paper>.png, to static/imgs/teasers.
• Add <my-paper>.md to src/routes/pubs
  • Authors can either:
    • refer to group members by their key in src/data/people.json (which should be their MIT Kerberos)
    • for non-VIS group members, explicitly specify their name, affiliation, and (optional) url
    • An equal: true key can be added to authors who share equal contribution (only expected for co-first authors)
  • themes can reference one or more keys from src/data/research_themes.json
  • tags can reference one or more entries from src/data/tags.json
  • Only two types of videos are supported: conference talk and figure which can reference a demo, walkthrough, or any other video you would like to feature. Video values are YouTube IDs.
  • The type of materials are any free fontawesome icon. Typical values are:
    • desktop for project websites, demo websites, etc.
    • code for GitHub/code repos
    • laptop-code for live editors
    • file-archive for supplementary materials
