100 Automations Website

100 Automations is a project of Hack for LA that showcases automations and microservices that reduce repetitive work in open source development; a project where anyone can create, collaborate on, and get credit for high-value open source contributions to the wider Civic Tech community. The name derives from the project’s goal to reach 100 developed automations in our first twelve months.

The 100 Automations website is going to be a standard Jekyll site hosted right here on GitHub pages. We will be providing further instructions after we have our first initial code.
