To install the project, fork this repository and clone it to your computer.

If you don't have it installed, you may need to get pypi-install by running (on Debian and its derivatives):

sudo apt-get install python-stdeb

Then, get the dependencies for the project by typing the following two commands (on Debian and its derivatives):

sudo apt-get install python-sphinx
sudo pypi-install sphinx-bootstrap-theme

You may also need to install GNU make, which is usually available on Debian via one of the following:

sudo apt-get install build-essential # Also installs a bunch of compilers, useful for other projects too
sudo apt-get install make # Installs only the base utility, less useful in a broad sense

Once you've installed the dependencies, you can render the project by typing:

make html

You will find the rendered pages in _build/html. A good place to start looking around is index.html.
