Changes:
- Added a new shared stylesheet (
page.css) and wired it into MkDocs. - Refactored the Sponsors page markup/styles to use shared
.wdc-page/.tiles/.cta/.btncomponents. - Rewrote and redesigned
docs/join.mdwith the new layout and updated copy.

I'd say something like "We meet online every Tuesday...."

@normanlorrain I like that suggestion. I've updated the lead line to be:
We meet online deterministically every Tuesday at 12pm Mountain Time. The in real life events date and time are nondeterministic.
Let me know what you think.

Looks good to me. Lots of HTML, but I see that's needed for the look of the page.
I struggled if adding the HTML was a good idea when I did the sponsor page, but I like the look better than the default you can get with Markdown. I doubt I would have made the change without coding agents as they really help with HTML and CSS formatting, at least for me. I figure the next re-design will be when we upgrade mkdocs in #67. |
Updated the join page to look more like the sponsor page. Also, updated the copy to, hopefully, make it easier for people to join and figure out what the WDC is all about.
