ICS' GSSPs

This repository contains the source code for the International Commission on Stratigraphy (ICS)'s website about Global Boundary Stratotype Section (GSSP)s, online at http://stratigraphy.org/gssps.

Technical notes

This is a Jekyll static site generator website which means the source files are pretty much simplified HTML pages - Markdown-formatted text files which you can see stored in the pages/ folder. These are combined with a very simple template to add headers & footers to all pages and produce the final HTML web pages which are then delivered online with a web server. We are using the built in GitHub Pages.

Jekyll Commands
