Thanks for the answer. The *.zip file will probably work.
I am new to Discourse and don’t quite understand the onebox concept.
Does this refer to a standalone link to the repository? I’ll put a test in below
Gist and Pastebin are great, but not sufficient since there are many graphic assets. The typical child is making games. My curriculum is also based on making games for Android. Since much of the application failure is happening on the Android phone itself due to things like incorrect directory references, I need to test the entire app package, not just the code snippet.
I’ve tried to get them to use GitHub, but it appears to be a bit challenging. My own son often has problems using it with me sitting right next to him. I only upload things to GitHub with git from the command line. Is there another way to upload a package with 20 files in it?
GitHub has a bunch of features on it for discussing code, but it’s a bit overwhelming.
I think I can use block code snippets in Discourse posts combined with *.zip file bundle uploads into the forum.
Although this is a hobby, this concept of integrating discussion and code sharing may bridge into my work at some point. The discussions on GitHub are code-centric. I like the people-centric focus of Discourse discussions.
