Resources to facilitate coding katas

Go to http://kata-log.rocks/ to see it in all its glory...

1. Fork this repository
2. Clone the new repository in your local environment
3. Create a branch
4. Add a new file:

_katas/name-of-the-kata.md

with this content (see details later):

---
layout: post
title:  "The name of the kata"
categories: [ List of categories separated by commas ]
image: default.jpg
---

{% include credits.md name='Author name' url='Original kata URL' %}

## Name of the kata

General explanation.

(*) Starting point

5. Create a pull request

Replace The name of the kata.

For example:

---
...
title: "Gilded Rose Kata"
...
---

Replace List of categories separated by commas by one level and one or more topics:

• Level. Choose Starter or Experienced.
• Topics. Choose as many as required from this list: SOLID Principles, Mocks, TDD, Software-Design, Golden Master, SOLID Principles, Outside-In, Agile, Pair-Programming, Mocks, BDD, Refactoring.

For example:

---
...
categories: [Starter, Refactoring, Golden Master, SOLID Principles, Software-Design]
...
---

If you have an available image to represent this kata, add it into images directories and replace default.jpg by the new filename in the header:

---
...
image: default.jpg
---

Give credit to the author of the kata when adding:

{% include credits.md name='Author name' url='Original kata URL' %}

For example:

{% include credits.md name='Emily Bache' url='https://github.com/emilybache/GildedRose-Refactoring-Kata' %}

Then, a Credits section will appear in the page.

If there is initial source code for the kata (for example, a refactoring kata) add this content at the end of the file (instead of (*) Starting point) to indicate the location (URL) and languages:

{%
    include get_the_code.md
    url='Source code repository URL'
    languages='List of languages separated by commas'
%}

For example:

{%
    include get_the_code.md
    url='https://github.com/emilybache/GildedRose-Refactoring-Kata'
    languages='ABAP, C, C++, C#, Dart, Elixir, F#, Go, Groovy, Haskell,
    Java, JavaScript, Kotlin, Perl, PHP, PLSQL, Python, Ruby, Rust, R,
    Scala, Smalltalk, Swift'
%}

In case there is no initial source code for the kata, add this line at the end of the file (instead of (*) Starting point) to add repository links with bootstraps in different programming languages:

{% include starting_points.md %}
