Git

If you check this repository out be aware that it uses Git submodules to manage the reveal.js dependency. To also checkout reveal.js, you will have to either:

Fetch it all in one hit

git clone --recursive https://github.com/UoM-ResPlat-DevOps/SpartanParallel

Or:

Take it step by step

git clone https://github.com/UoM-ResPlat-DevOps/SpartanIntro

git submodule init

git submodule update

To regenerate the slides

The SlideExtractor.jar in the root directory will re-create the slides if needed.

To run it ensure that the java version installed is java 8:

java -version

should return something along the lines of java version "1.8.0_65".

If it doesn't then install java 8 from here: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/overview/java8-2100321.html

Then in a command prompt in the root directory simply issue:

java -jar SlideExtractor.jar

You should see something like the following fly by:

Working on: ./Lessons/Lesson_1.md Writing to: ./Presentation/Lesson_1.html Writing to: ./Presentation/index.html
