Source of Truth

Updating Passwords

To sync passwords from the Google Sheet and generate post files:

ruby scripts/update_passwords.rb

This script will:

• Fetch the latest passwords from the Google Sheet
• Generate or update post files in _posts/ with the YYYY-MM-DD-wifi.md naming pattern
• Create posts with the proper template including QR codes and copy-to-clipboard functionality

Note: The Google Sheet must be publicly accessible (view-only is sufficient) for the script to work.

Build

Generate the static site for deployment:

bundle exec jekyll build

Output will be in _site/.
