Notes for UW Software Engineering.
Write notes in Markdown with embedded LaTeX. When you push to develop, get CircleCI to render HTML pages using a small Ruby script and Pandoc, and then push the results to a Github Pages branch.
Each folder that contains Markdown files will get its own index in the rendered site. I tend to use one folder per course. Inside a course folder, I also make an img directory that just has images I use in my notes that I then reference with a relative path (e.g. <img src="img/some_image.png" />).
I use Vim to edit my files. I use my fork of markdown-preview to create a Markdown preview with MathJax support, only refreshed on save. Here's a snippet from my .vimrc:
" In Vundle setup
Plugin 'iamcco/mathjax-support-for-mkdp'
Plugin 'davepagurek/markdown-preview.vim'
Plugin 'drmingdrmer/vim-syntax-markdown'
" Markdown preview config
" Only refresh preview on save (default is every edit, jumps around too much for my liking
let g:mkdp_refresh_on_save = 1
" Use Safari for preview (feel free to change to Chrome)
let g:mkdp_path_to_chrome = "open -a Safari"
" Use <Leader>mm to launch preview, <Leader>mn to close
nmap <silent> <Leader>mm <Plug>MarkdownPreview
nmap <silent> <Leader>mn <Plug>StopMarkdownPreview
" Enable MathJax
let g:vim_markdown_math = 1For illustrations, I use Paintbrush, an mspaint clone for Mac. I have also had to disble BetterTouchTool for Paintbrush in Sierra to prevent it from thinking there are extra clicks happening.
