Add list of member organizations to website.

Probably should have its own page, maybe a more fully-built-out about page? Also a summary on the home page to lend credibility (since you're asking for donations and all).

Agreed 👍🏻 Membership is developing so I'd like to decouple the design and implementation from the data. Let's do the website changes in a branch/PR with fake data, and then we'll publish those changes once we have the real membership data. That means we might have to be somewhat conservative initially with the design to keep it contained and avoid merge-conflicts.

I like the suggestion of creating an About page to contain this content. That satisfies my requirement that we keep the changes self-contained. We're in a content-building phase right now, so I expect that we'll reorganize pages and navigation later.

We can use data files to separate the content from the layout. See here: https://jekyllrb.com/docs/datafiles/

Examples:

https://github.com/krusynth/digitalpolicy/tree/ghpages/_data/acronyms
https://github.com/krusynth/billhunt.dev/tree/www/_data

You can also do this as front matter yaml in the page itself, but in my experience that is painful to maintain and I don't recommend it. (E.g. https://raw.githubusercontent.com/krusynth/billhunt.dev/www/about.md )

My preference would be for using data files 👍 Let's be as Jekylly as possible.

We're just waiting on the member lists now.

My ideal would be a map of where everyone is -- but for now I think we can just list members and link them to their site. Open to how we handle this part since we'll have to (hopefully) scale to a longer list. I do like how Code for All does this too https://codeforall.org/our-global-network

You should just need to update these files: krusynth@bf6e0d1#diff-d292f13f8d21bbaa7580dcbc524afeb4c63a68664ec8dff71fedd56242ab5a55

I'm afraid I can't help you with the maps, probably easiest just to draw one and have it be non-interactive anyway.
