I've built a pretty extensive open source project that I'm soon going to publish online. It's got full documentation, source, and everything else you'd expect from a project, but no website.
I've been looking around for inspiration, and found some great open source website examples written by the pocoo team, for example:
Flask
Jinja
The problem is, I'm not a designer, and can't make web designs if my life depends on it.
So my question is: are there any good HTML/CSS templates out there that would be suitable to use for an open source project? Preferably something simple that shows off a bit of code, and links to docs, help, etc.

Sphinx is a documentation system that should be able to help you out. It's very popular in the Python community, and actually those pages you pointed out utilize this tool, as well---look at the bottom of the pages. The official Python documentation uses it, too.
It uses the reStructuredText markup language, so that's what you'd need to read up on if you're not already familiar with it.

I am working remotely with some colleagues on a Rmarkdown document, and I would like to make a simple review of the file (especially the comment part and not the code), and then send it back to others with my reviews embeded in the document, like a word document review or a kind of Overleaf review. I have made some research on the topic, but I didn't find something that feet my needs as explained. Please, Is there a way to add some review in a Rmakdown document and sent it back (either online or not)?
Take a look at Etherpad
Etherpad is a highly customizable Open Source online editor providing collaborative editing in really real-time.
Or, better: StackEdit
With StackEdit, you can share collaborative workspaces, thanks to the Google Drive synchronization mechanism. If two collaborators are working on the same file at the same time, StackEdit takes care of merging the changes.
Or, even better: HackMD
HackMD is a realtime, multiplatform collaborative markdown note editor.
This means that you can write notes with other people on your desktop, tablet or even on the phone.
I suggest you considering trackdown https://claudiozandonella.github.io/trackdown/
trackdown is an R package that offers a simple answer to collaborative writing and editing of R Markdown (or Sweave) documents. With trackdown, the local .Rmd (or .Rnw) file is uploaded as plain-text in Google Drive where, thanks to the easily readable Markdown (or LaTeX) syntax and the well-known online interface offered by Google Docs, collaborators can easily contribute to the writing and editing of the narrative part of the document. After integrating all authors’ contributions, the final document can be downloaded and rendered locally.
You can find more details at this answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/68014082/12481476 or in the package documentation https://claudiozandonella.github.io/trackdown/

I store my school programming work on google drive. From home I just access the google drive file on my computer, but I can't do that from school.
Can anybody recommend an app for editing cpp files in google drive? Preferably free, poor college student and all that.
I found drivecode, but it doesn't seem to work with cpp files and on header files it's not doing any markup.
Neutron Drive seems like exactly what I need, but it's not free.
Alternatively, any suggestions on another cloud-based development platform that I could use would work too.
screw Google driver, for single files use
https://gist.github.com/
http://collabedit.com/
for large project as said above, start learning mercurial. later you will need it professionally.
In light of the comments under the question, I think the best option is actually to use a service like gitHub, mercurial, bazaar, or svn, because of the availability of version control in those platforms.
You might also want to try out Google Code, it's not quite as advanced as GIT and hopefully it's not blocked either. Also, you already have a Google account, so you won't have to make a new account for anything.
Google Code allows full editing capabilities online, but you can also create a repository using it and download your code when you're ready to compile. You may need to learn a little bit about it before you can start, but once you upload your code you can edit it all right there, and it also formats automatically, making it better than Drive.
If Google Code is in fact blocked, I would also suggest trying GIT or some other service, but they're a little more advanced. Google Code has served me well for simple projects in the past.

Looking to develop my own small C++ browser that basically will display HTML, Javascript, and Flash, where to start? [closed]

I'm looking to start developing a browser (operating system isn't an issue, but preferring Linux or Windows). I'm just trying to figure out where to start. I know Visual Studio lets you drop a lightweight IE component into it, but I don't want IE's issues. I was hoping to start with a very basic mozilla build, but I cant seem to find one anywhere.
Does anyone know where I can find a good open source starting point OR how to start this on my own?
If you're not opposed to using Qt, then Qt's Webkit implementation could be a fairly clean start for cross-platform work:
http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7-snapshot/examples-webkit.html
Note in particular the "Fancy Browser" sample:
http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7-snapshot/webkit-fancybrowser.html
There are many customizations possible and ways of hooking the engine. There's also support for Flash, though I've not tried that:
http://www.qtcentre.org/threads/31547-Flash-support-for-QT-Webkit-4-6
Although you can use Qt with other compilers/IDEs, the quickest way to get started is with Qt Creator. After installing it there should only be a few clicks needed to get the QtWebkit examples building, on either Windows or Linux:

I have had contact with Google Chromium Code and that’s terrific for building applications with. The problem now lies that no-one has tried to use it outside Google Chromium Project. What I have in mind is to develop an open source project which may be used for this purpose. The fundamental goals would be:
Guarantee Linux-Windows support for the same code.
Take advantage of all resources available like thread control, stats, unit test…
Make it clearer how to use Skia for graphic effects and customizations.
Present a useful application doing the most of this.
Integrate C++ and JavaScript code using V8
Use Webkit for rendering html content
There’s a chance of it get off the paper. What do YOU think?

Developer.
see https://github.com/lianliuwei/chromium_base
I create it for the same reason like you.
chromium is great project. It's code could be useful to using in other project. but It need time to extract it. I see one project to extract the ui part, but it change too many for noreason for example it change the .cc to .cpp. my project extract the base, ui, view part for the origin project, rm the ICU (it's so big) and gurl(you can add it quick) keep the gyp, gclient, grit-i18n, gtest, gmock... change the code little. and keep the extract history. I add a new type of messageloop for using it in the MFC(for company project :( ) now it can only work on Windows but it's no so hard to make it work on linux.(google do it all)
for use the browser in you project you can see the http://code.google.com/p/chromium/ for help.
It's great this project help you a litte. I at first think it's a no one care project.
I'm assuming you have looked at the extensively documented and developed QtWebkit and know why you don't want to use that?
I'm sure it will be easier to use V8 in a QtWebkit application than to somehow tear out Chromium's "View project".
Qt has the bonus that as long as you operate within the framework, everything will work on a lot of different platforms (more than Chomium now supports I think).

How to import word documents into wiki? [closed]

Anyone knows? Because i think one of the stumbling blocks for people to embrace wiki is of the fact that they need to separately upload the images to the wiki instead of just doing simple copy/paste to the word document
OpenOffice can save as a Mediawiki text file, ready to be pasted into the edit box online.
Microsoft has an add-on for Word 2007 and Word 2010 to save in mediawiki markup. It can be downloaded from http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=12298
The guys at mindtouch.com told me they have a tool that imports word docs into their wiki.
You did not specify which wiki you use, here are some links mostly related to mediawiki:
You can use wikEd, which allows to paste formatted text
Help:WordToWiki lists 3 alternative ways
Extension:Word2MediaWikiPlus includes also automatical image upload.
The folks at webworks.com have a nice desktop software solution that automatically publishes Word documents to wiki. Currently they support out-of-box: Confluence, Mediawiki, and MoinMoin.
