Create Lesson Content

Edit the lesson Markdown files to create content pages.

Markdown is a standard to simplify writing content for the web. GitHub markdown flavor can be used any where on GitHub and in Jekyll. The basics are intuitive, you can learn in about a minute! See Markdown in a Minute to get started.

When creating content pages:

to include a page in the nav, add nav: true to the file’s yml front matter.
the title: value will appear in the nav, sorted in the order of filenames. For simplicity use leading numbers in the lesson page filenames to create correct order.
the default layout does not add title to the page, so it can be a short for the nav. So add a title in the Markdown content.

Add Figures

Using figure include:

put all images in the images directory.
figures will be centered, and can optionally be given a caption and percentage width.
in a markdown file where you want the image to appear, use the figure.html include on its own line.
pattern: {% include figure.html img="my-cat.jpg" alt="cat" caption="My cat" width="50%" %}
