How to edit this site

Documentation is written using markdown and published through Github pages using mkdocs. If you're unfamiliar with using markdown, check out this handy cheat sheet.

How to make changes

In depth documentation for mkdocs can be found here.

  1. In the terminal, install mkdocs and the mkdocs material theme with:
pip install mkdocs
pip install mkdocs-material
  1. If adding any new files, add the file under the mkdocs.yml's nav config like so:
nav:
   - Getting Started: "Getting Started.md"

This will make the file "Getting Started.md" visible on the web page's index

Previewing changes

To preview the documentation site before pushing changes to github: 1. In the terminal, run:

mkdocs serve
  1. In any web browser navigate to 127.0.0.1:8000
