K8 and ICP problem determination and debugging courses. These courses are viewed and presented using the Collector application, which is also included in this github account. Refer to the fs-collector repository for additional information regarding Collector.
The proper use of these course files requires them to be placed in public/coursecatalog of the Collector application.
The course content used within Collector is created using Markdown. Markdown is a lightweight markup language with plain text formatting syntax. Its design allows it to be converted to many output formats.

For detailed formatting and syntax fo the course files refer to the CONTENT.md file in the Collector repository for a description of the course file formats.
