* [ ] Change links:
* [ ] Add icons (e.g. fontawesome) for external links to people (email, github, twitter, etc.) on the [people page] (https://datascience.cals.arizona.edu/people) and individual pages e.g. [people/name](https://datascience.cals.arizona.edu/person/david-lebauer) page, have similar options for project pages

* how to move people around

* how to update people page
* how to update menu
* update all content
* How to add calendar feeds in iCal format?
### Website pain points
- Editing pages with cards (e.g., our Projects page), it's difficult to tell how to add more cards because there are a bunch of subforms, some empty, and there's a nested structure that is difficult to interpret
- Preview doesn't show what the site will actually look like, and the caching prevents immediately seeing what will be on line
- editing in the drupal interface obfuscates content - makes it hard to see what is there.
