        The tutorial presents the basic syntax and the most fundamental
        elements of a scientific document, while the manual has accumulated
        all the different features available. The most efficient way to get
        started is to look at the [report demo](http://doconce.github.io/teamods/writing_reports/index.html) and study
        the [source code](http://doconce.github.io/teamods/writing_reports/_static/report.do.txt.html)
        (it has all the basic elements such as title, author, abstract, table
        of contents, headings, comments, inline mathematical formulas,
        single/multiple equations, with and without numbering, labels,
        cross-references to sections and equations, bullet lists, enumerated
        lists, copying of computer code from files, inline computer code,
        index entries, figures, tables, and admonitions).
        
        
        ### Installation
        
        DocOnce is a Python 3 package that can be installed with `pip` or `conda`. This procedure installs a minimal number of dependencies. 
        
        ##### Preliminary steps
        * The `python -V` and `pip -V` commands should refer to Python 3.x. If that is not the case, you might want to use the `pip3` and `python3` commands in the following instructions.
        
        ##### Installation using pip
        
        Install DocOnce and its dependencies:
        
        ```
        pip install DocOnce --user
        ```
        
        ##### Installation using conda
        
        Create a conda environment with `pip`:
        ```
        conda create --name doconce python=3
        conda activate doconce
        conda install pip
        ```
        
        Install DocOnce:
        ```
        pip install DocOnce
        ```
        
        ##### Installation in a Python virtual environment
        
        A Python virtual environment is an isolated environment for python projects, which makes this option the safest installation. 
        
        Create a virtual environment:
        ```
        python -m venv venv
        . venv/bin/activate
        ```
        
        Install DocOnce:
        ```
        pip install DocOnce
        ```
        
        ##### Comprehensive installation
        
        For carrying out a comprehensive installation clone this repository 
        on the local computer and run `pip install` in that directory:
        
        ```
        git clone git@github.com:doconce/doconce.git
        cd doconce
        pip install -r requirements.txt
        python setup.py install
        ```
        
        Also refer to the [manual](https://doconce.github.io/doconce/doc/pub/manual/manual.html#install:doconce) to upgrade your DocOnce software to the latest update.
        
        
        ### Highlights
        
         * DocOnce is a modestly tagged markup language (see [syntax example](http://doconce.github.io/teamods/writing_reports/_static/report.do.txt.html)), quite like Markdown, but with many more features, aimed at documents with
           *much math and code in the text* (see [demo](http://doconce.github.io/teamods/writing_reports/index.html)).
         * There is extensive support for book projects. In addition to classical LaTeX-based paper books one gets for free fully responsive, modern-looking, HTML-based ebooks for tablets and phones. Parts of books can, e.g., appear in blog posts for discussion and as IPython notebooks for experimentation and annotation.
         * For documents with math and code, you can generate *clean* plain LaTeX (PDF), HTML (with MathJax and Pygments - embedded in your own templates), Sphinx for attractive web design, Markdown, IPython notebooks, HTML for Google or Wordpress blog posts, and MediaWiki. The LaTeX output has many fancy layouts for typesetting of computer code.
         * DocOnce can also output other formats (though without support for nicely typeset math and code): plain untagged text, Google wiki, Creole wiki, and reStructuredText. From Markdown or reStructuredText you can go to XML, DocBook, epub, OpenOffice/LibreOffice, MS Word, and other formats.
         * The document source is first preprocessed by Preprocess and Mako, which gives you full programming capabilities in the document's text. For example, with Mako it is easy to write a book with all computer code examples in two alternative languages (say Matlab and Python), and you can determine the language at compile time of the document. New user-specific features of DocOnce can also be implemented via Mako.
         * DocOnce extends Sphinx, Markdown, and MediaWiki output such that LaTeX align environments with labels work for systems of equations. DocOnce also adjusts Sphinx and HTML code such that it is possible to refer to equations outside the current web page.
         * DocOnce makes it very easy to write slides with math and code by stripping down running text in a report or book. LaTeX Beamer slides, HTML5 slides (reveal.js, deck.js, dzslides), and Remark (Markdown) slides are supported. Slide elements can be arranged in a grid of cells to easily control the layout.
        
        DocOnce looks similar to [Markdown](http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/), [Pandoc-extended
        Markdown](http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/), and in particular
        [MultiMarkdown](http://fletcherpenney.net/multimarkdown/).  The main
        advantage of DocOnce is the richer support for writing large documents
        (books) with much math and code and with
        tailored output both in HTML and
        LaTeX. DocOnce also has special support for exercises, [quizzes](http://doconce.github.io/doconce/doc/pub/quiz/quiz.html), and [admonitions](http://doconce.github.io/doconce/doc/pub/manual/._manual017.html#___sec55),
        three very desired features when developing educational material.
        Books can be composed of many smaller documents that may exist
        independently of the book, thus lowering the barrier of writing books
        (see [example](https://github.com/hplgit/setup4book-doconce)).
        
        
        ### News
        
        Here are some of the most recent features and enhancements in DocOnce:
         * October 2020: DocOnce can now produce content files for [Jupyter Book](https://jupyterbook.org/intro.html). 
         * July 2020: Alessandro Marin at the [Centre for Computing in Science Education](http://www.mn.uio.no/ccse/english/) at the University of Oslo, assumes the role of developer and principal maintainer.
         * On 10 October 2016, Hans Petter Langtangen, creator of DocOnce, [passed away](https://www.simula.no/news/hans-petter-langtangen-1962-2016). Kristian Gregorius Hustad, supported by the [Centre for Computing in Science Education](http://www.mn.uio.no/ccse/english/) at the University of Oslo, will assume the role of principal maintainer.
        
        Here are some recent books written in DocOnce:

        ### Contribute to DocOnce
        
        Refer to the guide [Getting Started with Development](http://doconce.github.io/doconce/doc/pub/devel/development.html). There you can read about how the DocOnce project is structured, and how to write a run/debug configuration script for a Python IDE. 
        
        
        ### Demo
        
        A [short scientific report](http://doconce.github.io/teamods/writing_reports/index.html)
        demonstrates the many formats that DocOnce can generate and how
        mathematics and computer code look like. (Note that at the bottom of
        the page there is a link to another version of the demo with complete
        DocOnce commands for producing the different versions.)
        
        <!-- Note: local links does not work since this README file is a source -->
        <!-- code file and not part of the published gh-pages. Use full URL. -->
        
        Another demo shows how DocOnce can be used to [create slides](http://doconce.github.io/doconce/doc/pub/slides/demo/index.html) in
        various formats (HTML5 reveal.js, deck.js, etc., as well as LaTeX
        Beamer).
        
        DocOnce has support for *responsive* HTML documents with design and
        functionality based on Bootstrap styles.  A [Bootstrap demo](http://doconce.github.io/doconce/doc/pub/bootstrap/index.html)
        illustrates the many possibilities for colors and layouts.
        
        DocOnce also has support for exercises in [quiz format](http://doconce.github.io/doconce/doc/pub/quiz/quiz.html). Pure quiz files can be *automatically uploaded* to 
        [Kahoot!](https://getkahoot.com) online quiz games operated through smart
        phones (with the aid of [quiztools](https://github.com/doconce/quiztools) 
        for DocOnce to Kahoot! translation).
        
        
        
        Several books (up to over 1000 pages) have been written entirely in
        DocOnce. The primary format is a publisher-specific LaTeX style, but
        HTML or Sphinx formats can easily be generated, such as [this chapter
        in Bootstrap style](http://doconce.github.io/primer.html/doc/pub/looplist/looplist-bootstrap.html),
        or the [solarized color style](http://doconce.github.io/primer.html/doc/pub/looplist/looplist-solarized.html)
        as many prefer. Slides can quickly be generated from the raw text in
        the book.  Here are examples in the [reveal.js](http://doconce.github.io/scipro-primer/slides/looplist/html/looplist-reveal-beige.html)
        (HTML5) style, or the more traditional [LaTeX Beamer](http://doconce.github.io/scipro-primer/slides/looplist/pdf/looplist-beamer.pdf)
        style, and even the modern [IPython notebook](http://nbviewer.ipython.org/url/hplgit.github.io/scipro-primer/slides/looplist/ipynb/looplist.ipynb)
        tool, which allows for interactive experimentation and annotation.

        ### Authors
        
        DocOnce was originally written by Hans Petter Langtangen at [hpl@simula.no](mailto:hpl@simula.no) in 2006-2016. Alessandro Marin ([email address](mailto:alessandro.marin@fys.uio.no)) has assumed in 2020 the role of developer and principal maintainer. A lot of people have contributed to testing the software and suggesting improvements. 
        
        
        ### How to cite
        
        #### Link in the copyright
        
        The command-line option `--cite_doconce` can be used
        to equip the copyright field with a link to the present page.
        Here is an example involving some document `mydoc.do.txt`:
        
        
        ```
        TITLE: Some document
        AUTHOR: Joe Doe
        ...
        ```
        
        Compile to HTML with DocOnce link:
        
        
        ```
        Terminal> doconce format html mydoc --cite_doconce
        ```
        
        The footer of the first page will now contain "Made with DocOnce".
        
        #### Traditional citation in a bibliography
        
        BibTeX format:
        
        
        ```
        @misc{DocOnce,
          title = {{DocOnce} markup language},
          author = {H. P. Langtangen},
          url = {https://github.com/doconce/doconce},
          key = {DocOnce},
          note = {\url{https://github.com/doconce/doconce}},
        }
        ```
        
        Publish format:
        
        
        ```
        * misc
        ** {DocOnce} markup language
