Etherpad

This article is a stub. You can help the IndieWebCamp wiki by expanding it.

Etherpad is an open source, real-time, collaborative document editing tool that the IndieWebCamp community often uses to take notes during IndieWebCamps at https://etherpad.indieweb.org/.

How to take notes during IndieWebCamp

• Each event should have a main etherpad that the organizers will announce.
• During session scheduling, each session should have a hashtag. Use that hashtag to add a link in the main etherpad, following the format: https://etherpad.indieweb.org/hashtag
• Open the link to that session's etherpad.
  • If the etherpad has not been used before, copy/paste the template below to start it.
  • Otherwise, if the etherpad has been used before, leave "archived notes" to previous sessions at the top, enter a few blank lines at the top, then copy/paste the template.
• Fill in the IndieWebCamp city, year, and participants names/URLs. Note the session facilitator beside their name.
• Start taking notes collaboratively under the "Notes" heading.
  • Use * for bulleted lists
  • Use # for numbered lists
  • Avoid indenting for nested lists, instead use multiple, e.g. ** is a second-level bullet
