This document describes how changes can be made to various areas of the Homepage.

2. Check the build passes on Amazon by checking the System - Deployments channel on Teams (if you have access, you can also check it on Amazon)
3. Preview the change at http://homepage-development.library.uq.edu.au/user-admin-manage/#/
4. Let devs know that you have a change to be merged in

• If it does not pass on first go and you do not have permissions to view the error in AWS, it is suggested you immediately get a dev to fix it for you as they can fix code layout errors very simply. Worry about getting the words right :)
