goals

goals with using github:

• visibility
• convenience
• open access
• utility for own coding
• teaching habits
• practicing habits

Hello World:

• don't want to bloat it, but could be useful for showing how to run a unit test, etc.

D3/Pelican:

• Good for visibility
• Harder to organize, not as good for the habits goal - harder to control code base
• Purpose? Quick dashboard? Interesting data set?
• What can you teach? What forum, for what purpose?
