Plugin for MKDocs to create conference websites
Project description
mkconf
A simple mkdocs plugin to help create a simple static conference website.
Currently simply exposes the configuration to the mustache variables for the page templates. Feel free to contribute templates for each needed
page. One can also make use of the macros
plugin to use the configuration variables within the markdown files, though you might be limited on styling options.
Motivation
Mkdocs yaml configs can be easily automated and created from csv's or excel files. Together with the mkdocs mike
plugin and using CalVer-versioning one can easily keep track of a conference over the years with very little maintaince.
Installation
pip install mkconf
and add it to the list of plugins in your mkdocs.yml file
plugins:

Usage
you can pass the custom paths through the speakers_file
