Adding a Podcast to Plan ₿ Academy

Are you looking to add a Bitcoin podcast to the Plan ₿ Academy site and increase visibility for your show, but don't know how? This tutorial is for you!

• First, you need to have a GitHub account. If you don't know how to create one, we have made a detailed tutorial to guide you.

GitHub AccountHow to create your own account on GitHub?

• Go to the GitHub repository of PlanB dedicated to data in the resources/podcasts/ section:
• Click on the top right on the Add file button, then on Create new file:
• If you have never contributed to the content of Plan ₿ Academy before, you will need to create your fork of the original repository. Forking a repository means creating a copy of that repository on your own GitHub account, allowing you to work on the project without affecting the original repository. Click on the Fork this repository button:
• You will then arrive at the GitHub editing page:
• Create a folder for your podcast. To do this, in the Name your file... box, write the name of your podcast in lowercase with dashes instead of spaces. For example, if your show is called "Super Podcast Bitcoin", you should write super-podcast-bitcoin:
• To validate the creation of the folder, simply add a slash after your podcast name in the same box, for example: super-podcast-bitcoin/. Adding a slash automatically creates a folder rather than a file:
• In this folder, you will create a first YAML file named podcast.yml:
• Fill in this file with information about your podcast using this template:
