Requirements

Build and publish

The pages are build from the source code and placed into a separate directory. Web page is published using GitHub pages. The publishing step is done automatically.

Building the pages

In your clone of the repository where you are in master branch, use build.sh script to build the pages.

./build.sh

The directory where pages are build is inside the directory with the source code and is named build. You can look at the pages using e.g.:

firefox build/index.html

If you don't see the changes you have made, delete the file in the build directory and build again (the mechanism to recognize changes is not smart).

To build lectures go to the lecture directory and run the build.sh for lectures script there, i.e.:

cd lectures
./build.sh

It is important to always be in the directory where the build.sh script is for each part.

Publishing the pages

Once the changed and committed and pushed to the master branch, the website will be deployed automatically using GitHub Actions.
