PolyMath documentation: github pages

Alexey Cherkaev
Hi all,

Since PolyMath has a page on github (https://github.com/PolyMathOrg/PolyMath), should we make the Jekyll-based github-pages site to put documentation and tutorials? (https://jekyllrb.com/docs/github-pages/)

Advantage of using Jekyll-based site is the ability to combine LaTeX math formulas (with MathJax) and code snippets.

As a toy-project, I've created this site http://mobius-eng.github.io/ . It uses Tufte style (something like Feinman was using for his Lectures on Physics), but unfortunately, it uses extra plugins that github does not support, so site is generated manually on my computer and loaded to github (instead of being generated directly on github). The "source" code of the raw site can be found in "writing" branch https://github.com/mobius-eng/mobius-eng.github.io/tree/writing. If simpler style is used, the work on the site will be much more straight-forward.

PS. I know Pharo offers Pier and Pillar for structured documents writing. I am not familiar with them though, they might offer more "native" alternative to Jekyll-based websites.

Cheers,
Alexey

For documentation, I would like to create a repository and put
everything in Pillar if possible.

This is nice for a blog I think in order to attract people.

I was looking at Pillar. Generally, it looks good. I see there is an issue open https://github.com/pillar-markup/pillar/issues/18 to add direct LaTeX support. It seems at the moment it doesn't support neither PNG/MathJax/MathML formulas in HTML export. The only support for math formulas in HTML export I could find is http://www.squeaksource.com/PRMath/ for Pier.

Cheers,
Alexey
