Template Details
This is a Jekyll-based static website template aimed at organizers of recurring events who want a website they control and that publicly communicates core information. The repository itself is a template; the intended use is to fork it and modify it as needed.
In terms of content structure, the template provides a blog section (with RSS feed), an event listings section, static pages (initially including about the group, code of conduct, health policy, and contact information), a links section, and a customizable base design. Pages include Schema.org structured markup to aid search engines and data reuse. It also integrates a DataTig admin site, located at the /datatig path of the website, for easier editing of site content and reuse of data.
Technically, it is a purely static site that can be built and hosted entirely on GitHub or other hosting services with Pages and build capabilities. Local development requires running the Jekyll build via Docker, while the DataTig admin requires installing datatig with pip and building it separately. The README roadmap mentions that future DataTig versions will support better event editing and generate public ical feeds that can be imported into calendars; these are plans rather than existing features.
Is it right for your project?
Use Cases
- Building a public information site for recurring meetups, user groups, or community events
- Publishing event announcements and recaps via the blog, with RSS for readers to subscribe to updates
- Publicizing essential organizer information such as the code of conduct, health policy, and contact details
- Editing site data centrally through the DataTig admin to reduce the frequency of direct source code changes
Suitable For
- Organizers of recurring events who need a self-controlled online information outlet
- Individuals or small teams able to use the GitHub fork and Pages deployment workflow
- Users who accept a static site and Jekyll build process and are willing to adjust content according to the template
Getting started & customization
Use these recorded setup notes alongside the repository instructions for your chosen version.
- 1
After forking the repository, first search the source code for "TOUSE" and replace it with actual content according to the comments
- 2
In the GitHub repository Settings → Pages, set the source to GitHub Actions to host it
- 3
When hosting on other platforms, adjust the build script by referring to .github/workflows/build_deploy.yaml
- 4
To preview the Jekyll site locally, use Docker to run the jekyll/builder image and execute jekyll serve
- 5
To build the DataTig admin, first pip install datatig, then run datatig.cli build to output to _site/datatig

Usage conditions & limitations
Free to use · keep license noticeThis entry covers the free version in the public repository under the BSD-3-Clause license; the free scope is the code of that version and does not imply that external services or third-party assets are free.
Must comply with when using
- Free use, modification, commercial use, and distribution in source or binary form are permitted.
- Source code distribution must retain the copyright notice, the three conditions, and the disclaimer; binary distribution must reproduce these in the documentation or accompanying materials.
- The names of the copyright holder or contributors may not be used to endorse or promote derivative products without prior written permission.
- The code is provided as is; warranties and limitations of liability are governed by the original license and applicable law.
Additional costs & items to verify
- The DataTig admin site requires separately installing datatig (pip install datatig) and running its CLI build; this is an additional dependency, not a built-in feature of the template.
- Building the Jekyll site locally requires using Docker to run the jekyll/builder image and installing dependencies such as webrick over the network.
- When hosting on platforms other than GitHub, the .github/workflows/build_deploy.yaml build script must be adapted to the target host.
- Demo images, fonts, icons, and other third-party assets must be checked against their respective licenses; the code's BSD-3-Clause license alone is not sufficient to determine this.
- External services such as domains, hosting, databases, payments, or AI may incur separate charges.

How this score is calculated
Our heuristic uses license records (up to 30), a demo link (12), a preview (10), stars (15), recorded maintenance (15), description completeness (8), feature records (5) and classification data (5). It is not a code, security or performance test, or a Google score. A link does not establish tested functionality.

A demo link is listed. Check it with your own content and viewport sizes; its presence does not confirm that forms, authentication or payments work.
The catalog identifies HTML as the primary stack. Check the actual dependency manifest and lockfile for versions and hosting requirements. These notes use recorded metadata, not a code audit or a deployment test.

Source file / repository# Event Website Template When someone is running a regular event, we think they should have a simple website to communicate essential information openly and publicly. While they can also use other services to promote their events, it's good to have a presence online that they own and control. This repository is a template for such a website. ## Features A blog section, with RSS feed. An events listing section. Static pages; starts with pages about the group, code of conduct, health policy and contact information. Links section. Basic design to customise. [Schema.org](https://schema.org/) markup for SEO and data reuse. [DataTig](https://github.com/DataTig) admin site, for easier site editing and data reuse. Available at /datatig in your website. ## Technical information The website is a static website that can be entirely built and hosted on GitHub or other good hosting services with pages and build capabilities. ## How to use Simply fork this repository, edit as needed and go! Start by searching for "TOUSE" in the source code, and change all of these as directed. To host on GitHub go to settings, pages and for the “source” option select “Github Actions”. If you want to host elsewhere you'll need to adopt the build script in .github/workflows/build_deploy.yaml to your host. ## Develop locally To build the Jekyll site: ``` docker run --rm --volume="$PWD:/srv/jekyll:Z" -p 4000:4000 -it jekyll/builder:4 /bin/bash -c 'gem install webrick && jekyll serve' ``` It should then be available on http://0.0.0.0:4000/event-website-template/ To build the DataTig admin site: ``` pip install datatig python -m datatig.cli build . --staticsiteoutput _site/datatig ``` ## Roadmap Future DataTig versions will allow better event editing, and allow creation of public ical feeds for people to import straight into calendars.
