How to contribute

This documentation is build with Sphinx <http://sphinx-doc.org/>, using reStructuredText. The syntax is straight forward and the source files are self-explanatory. Therefore, you don’t need much knowledge on either Sphinx nor reStructuredText to contribute.

Here’s how. Click the Edit on GitHub link on the upper right corner of the page, and it will take you to the source on GitHub. Just edit the source here. You will have to be a member of UCI Randerson Lab group on GitHub.

Or clone this repository to your local machine by:

git clone https://github.com/uci-randerson-lab/Technical-Notes-of-Randerson-Group.git

Source file is inside directory source and you can edit the .rst files directly. Each .rst file corresponds to one page in the .html file. If you add one .rst file, don’t forget to add the name of the source file in index.rst.

After you finish your editing, run make html in the top directory, and you will find your newly built html file inside build/html. Then add changes to git by:

git add -A

Commit and comment your changes by:

git commit -m 'Your message'

Finally, push your changes to git hosted on UCI Randerson Lab GitHub Group:

git push

Or if that’s to complicated, you can send your notes to Guo <guol3@uci.edu> and ask him to add it for you.
