Update resources and hands-on labs with latest content

Open vishalvivekm opened this issue 8 months ago β€’ 12 comments

Current Behavior

https://layer5.io/resources lists old, outdated resources. Similarly https://layer5.io/learn/service-mesh-labs is need of being update with latest cloud native labs using Meshery Playground.

Desired Situation

It should include:

  • http://cloud.layer5.io/academy/overview challanges and learning paths
  • https://docs.meshery.io/guides/tutorials
  • https://github.com/meshery/meshery/issues/14090 set of sessions

Replace https://layer5.io/learn/service-mesh-labs url to be https://layer5.io/learn/cloud-native-labs, ensure a redirect from older to newer url.

  • replace labs with the ones at docs.meshery.io/guides/tutorials

Contributor Resources and Handbook

The layer5.io website uses Gatsby, React, and GitHub Pages. Site content is found under the master branch.

  • Yes, I can build the components @vishalvivekm
  • My approach will be to remove all markdowns under the resources collection and copy the blog files from the Meshery docs
  • For the redirect, we can use the createRedirect action in gatsby-node.js to make the redirect.

@LibenHailu not necessarily all the contents, rather the ones which are service mesh focused. do you mind explaining about blog files from Meshery docs?

@vishalvivekm I don't understand what I do with this http://cloud.layer5.io/academy/overview challanges and learning paths and https://github.com/meshery/meshery/issues/14090 set of sessions but to include https://docs.meshery.io/guides/tutorials in to layer5 resources I copy the content from meshrey docs tutorials which uses go and changing things so that It can work with the layer5 gatsby app all of them will have tags Meshrey and tutorial in the front matter I will aslo use the current data for date property.

Thanks for assigning me, @LibenHailu!

I can successfully build the Layer5 website locally and I'm comfortable working with Gatsby components.

πŸ”§ My approach to resolving this issue:

  1. Update /resources page:

  2. Content Selection:

    • Focus on service mesh-related tutorials.
    • Ensure each tutorial includes appropriate frontmatter:
      • tags: [Meshery, tutorial]
      • Accurate date based on original content.
  3. New URL Handling:

    • Replace /learn/service-mesh-labs with /learn/cloud-native-labs.
    • Add a redirect from the old to the new URL using createRedirect in gatsby-node.js.

Let me know if I should clarify or modify any part of this plan! Looking forward to contributing

@Ayushmore1214 any updtes ?

vr-varad avatar Jun 28 '25 07:06 vr-varad

I have some issue seting up meshery locally , till then you can assign this to someone else !

Ayushmore1214 avatar Jun 28 '25 09:06 Ayushmore1214

hey @vr-varad I’d like to pick this up if it’s still open. I can set up the Layer5 site locally, work with Gatsby components, and follow the earlier suggested plan (update /resources, include Meshery tutorials, Academy challenges, contributor sessions, and handle the redirect from /learn/service-mesh-labs β†’ /learn/cloud-native-labs).
