BauDi-Contentathon 2025 - 24h workshop for digital research data
15.07.2025 (3 pm) to 16.07.2025 (3 pm)
Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg
Research software is often rich in functionalities, but usually also complex in its infrastructure and not always easy to maintain. These aspects are exacerbated when the capacities of a project are severely limited (e.g. in one-person projects such as dissertation projects, theses or project seminars, etc.).
This was also the experience with “Baumann-Digital”, which was created as a “side” project as part of a dissertation project. Unfortunately, one of the most important aspects of this software also fell by the wayside: The documentation.
This “work” workshop is not a series of lectures and discussions, but a working meeting to work on concrete solutions. The focus is on advancing the documentation of Baumann-Digital's research software.
Ideally, two sets of documentation will be produced: a technical one and a user guide to facilitate subsequent use. Depending on the composition of the group of participants, work can also be done on the software itself (updates, optimizations, bug-fixing, Dockerization, Github CI/CD).
Schedule:
15:00-16:30 Block I (check-in, topic groups and workshop structure)
17:00-18:30 Block II (topic groups)
From 19:00 Socializing & Networking (at own expense)
09:00-10:30 Block III (presentation of interim results and thematic groups)
