ASF-Pelican

In 2019 Infra created ASF-Pelican as a structure and template for projects to use to build their websites, and for the ASF's own website.

In 2024, Infra moved from ASF-Pelican to the ASF Infrastructure Pelican Action GitHub Action to perform the same functions without being closely tied to BuildBot. The repository for this GHA is github.com/apache/infrastructure-actions/tree/main/pelican.

Review the following information to simplify your work with, and get your best results from, the Pelican GHA:

Getting started

See the Pelican getting-started guide.

For site designers

• Information about the ASF Theme.
• The Apache Project Website Checker periodically reviews all TLP websites and reports whether they comply with Apache's policies for TLP websites.

For site developers

• Data modeling provides what developers need to know to maintain and expand on the data they want to use and display on their site.
• Build process describes the full end-to-end build from the developer's perspective.
• Review the plugins that are included in the template repository, and the plugin architecture.

For site committers

• The template uses GitHub Flavored Markdown (GFM) to structure content. It also supports most HTML elements.
• How to develop your site using local builds on a local Linux or macOS system.
