Just a place to store my private notes and journal experiences.
The root document is TravelLogIstrael.tex, which is a LaTeX document that can be compiled to produce a publication-ready PDF.
For more information about TeX and LaTeX, see this url: https://www.tug.org/begin.html
In order to download and compile this document to help contribute, you'll want to do 2 things:
- Get yourself setup in Git (version control system)
-
You'll want to get started by installing the GitHub Desktop client and ensuring you can authenticate https://help.github.com/desktop/guides/getting-started/
-
Then you'll want to clone down the repository so you have a local copy of the project to work on.
-
You might want to run through a walkthrough of Git if you want to actually contribute back, I request that you use a pull-request if you want to make any edits at all.
A good walkthrough can be found here: https://guides.github.com/activities/hello-world/
- Install the TeX editor
-
There are LaTeX editors and compiler toolchains for every platform (windows, mac, linux).
-
For windows, stick with the proTeX package, it bundles MikeTeX (the compiler and package manager) and TeXStudio (the editor) https://www.tug.org/protext/
