confirmlabs

We use Quarto for running this website. To write a new post:

• Create an .ipynb or .md file in the posts/ folder.
• Copy the header from one of the existing posts. In the YAML "frontmatter" at the top of the post, edit to set the date and author and such.
  • Add description: 'some description' to the frontmatter to set the short blurb that is used on the main post listing page.
  • Add image: filename to the frontmatter to set the image used on the main post listing page.
• Leave the bibliography portion of the header. Then, you can add and cite articles in the biblio.bib file.
• For local preview:
  • install on mac: brew install quarto
  • install on ubuntu: sudo curl -LO https://quarto.org/download/latest/quarto-linux-amd64.deb; sudo apt-get install gdebi-core; sudo gdebi quarto-linux-amd64.deb
  • quarto preview
• Committing and pushing to the main branch will trigger an Actions workflow that will update the main website.
  • You can watch that Actions workflow here: https://github.com/Confirm-Solutions/confirmlabs/actions

Paper publication checklist

• put the latest draft in papers/.
• put the latest version on arxiv.
• share it widely!

Writing checklist

• the obvious: typos and grammar.
• did the post get messed up somehow when pushed and visible on confirmlabs.org instead of locally?
  • did you forget to git add an image?
• arxiv links are links to abstracts and not pdfs.
• all links work correctly.
• consistent capitalization and word usage.
• where appropriate, convert parentheticals to footnotes?
