:scroll::information_source: Organizing space for the Anarcho-Tech NYC collective.

Anarcho-Tech NYC Collective / Tech Antifa

Shared assets for various Anarcho-Tech NYC projects live here. This is also the container for numerous projects intended to support the collective's longer-term goals. For example, our Train the Trainers project is a collection of workshops and practice labs intended to support the educational efforts of digital security trainers and their students.

The easiest way to obtain the materials herein is to download the latest copy of our work as a ZIP archive. Once downloaded, unzip the file, which can usually be accomplished simply by double-clicking on it. Once you have the files saved on your computer, you can navigate through the folders to find the project or workshop that interests you.

Repository structure

This repository is (generally) organized in the following way:

• <project name>/ folder for a given meta-organizing project.
  • README.md file describing the project goals, details, specific structure (if deviating from this general structure).
  • <subproject name>/ folder housing files related to a particular subproject.
    • README.md file describing the subproject itself.

Some projects are included as Git submodules, so use git clone --recursive when cloning if you'd like to obtain the entire collection.
