Join the loop

utsa-webring links the personal sites of UTSA students and alumni in tech. Joining takes about five minutes and is free.

Who can join

  • Current UTSA students and alumni (graduated, or attended for at least one semester), at any degree level.
  • Your major, minor or degree is in a tech field: computer science, computer engineering, cybersecurity, data science, AI/ML, information systems or technology, electrical engineering, statistics or math with a computing focus, or digital/UX design. Not sure? If your site is mostly about technical work, you're in.
  • The link is your own personal site: a portfolio, blog or digital garden. Company pages, link-in-bio pages and bare GitHub or LinkedIn profiles don't count.
  • Your site follows the content policy.

How to join

Option 1: open a pull request

  1. Open data/members.json on GitHub and click the pencil icon to edit it.
  2. Add your entry at the end of the members list (don't forget the comma after the entry before yours).
  3. Propose the change and fill in the pull request template, including one public link that shows you're at UTSA.
{
  "id": "your-name",
  "name": "Your Name",
  "gradYear": 2027,
  "major": "Computer Science",
  "website": "https://your-site.dev/",
  "joined": "2026-11-12"
}

id is lowercase letters, numbers and hyphens, and it never changes: it's part of your prev/next links. degree (BS, BA, BBA, MS, MA, MBA, PhD or Other) is optional.

Option 2: fill out a form

No Git needed: open the join form and a maintainer will add you.

Either way, never post your student ID or abc123. A LinkedIn profile, a GitHub bio, a Devpost project or a student-org roster page is enough to show you're at UTSA.

Add the links to your site

Once you're in, paste these links anywhere on your site, usually the footer. They're plain HTML: no script, no tracking, and they keep working as people join and leave. Style them however you like.
