🔨 How can we fix the Docusaurus sidebars for Meetings & homepage?

[JFWooten4]

In setting up the Blog page recently, I accidentally broke the homepage, and the meetings list still isn’t working. As a recap, the idea here is to have a place to embed all the recordings of past DUNA discussions, which are documented as being held weekly.¹

Ideally, in a quick technical fix, we could get this set up as a barebones functional directory, like the existing blog. And of course, a DAO homepage reminiscent of our main brand values and introduction circa WhyDRS.org would be exceptional! 💜

Footnotes

1. The recordings are hosted amongst members on IPFS, and more recent captures include video. ↩

No clue on the sidebars - so far as the directory, eventually the more we can move to automation the better in order to ensure a timely upload, etc. I wonder if we should consider moving away from Discord as a platform and consider access to that sort of easy record -> upload as a motivator when considering what we could switch to. Discord has advantages, tons except for native support of these features hahaha. Access for anyone to join with voice or video are good traits.

Not familiar with other platforms (would Matrix have this?) but would like to bring up the recording hosting chat again given initial hiccups with IPFS. I'm pretty weak at networking and server implementations, albeit not as large a handicap as frontend work. For instance, the Syndicate’s interfaces are all headless Python scripts in Lambda, and I’ve mentioned on other calls that I simply cannot with local Docker containers due to technical ineptitude.

I'm with you in making it easy for everyone to share their voices, and I just hope we can get things going with a reliable archive of our excellent community discussions like last night with @NYTEMODEONLY.

Recorded hosting chat - referring to getting a tool like https://github.com/CraigChat/craig implemented? Open source discord recorder.

From a backend side I wonder if it'd be feasible to get this system to not only record, but push updates to RSS and to any kind of UI directory we might eventually build. Maybe it can also run audio through a transcriber and spit out summaries. I could imagine that it's possible to automate much of that, but it's beyond my understanding at the moment. I do know that one hurdle here is getting some kind of server space set up since the audio has to live somewhere. That server entity could then also be operating as one of the nodes, I imagine.

Getting a bit off topic though!

I've got an extra computer which I'd be happy to dedicate towards the effort if it's easy to run. I've spent months trying to get local software running at least two times across the years. So would just super appreciate something simple to configure and leave running.

Any luck with the fix / dao stuff mentioned?

I can take a look and try to triage things if you need

@HunterSides that would be super helpful, because I am having a very hard time getting Node / Yarn running.
