Hello, community!
My team is currently focused on creating self-paced training content aimed at enabling current and prospective SREs for their job roles. Most of our content is going to internal Red Hat associates first (it's the group we serve). But we have a goal to work with other Red Hatters committed to pushing that content out into the community space. We also have two training modules (units of training) currently in development that are going directly into the community space: "The Operate First Mindset" and "Getting Involved with Open Source."
To make this possible, I've worked on setting up our
Operate First "training" repo [1] with a README.md, directory structure, and the placeholders for the Operate First and Open Source courses in Jupyter Book form. Our current plan is to develop each training module as a Jupyter Book within that directory structure.
We're now at the stage of needing help from the rest of the community to:
- Get feedback/suggestions about our plan to use Jupyter Book in this way
- Engage someone who can create some PR-triggered automation that will build the books and publish them to a training space at operate-first.org
- Take any suggestions on how we could organize the content in the repo better to facilitate that automation
I am working off building Jupyter Books into HTML, then publishing the HTML. But perhaps there's an alternative I haven't considered. I'm welcome to anything that will make the process easier for contributors and maintainers alike!
Once we can establish a flow of create+publish+maintain, we can all start to build out that content.
What should my next step be?
Also, Is this within the realm of the community SIG? Or should we form a "training SIG" for this? Or maybe a general "knowledge SIG" that's focused on both docs and training?
