README for the FluPhylogeneticsModule GitHub repository.

This repository contains information for a high-school level educational module that uses phylogenetics to understand a flu pandemic.

Making the slides

These slides are written in reStructuredText and compiled with hieroglyph (a Python package).

To compile the slides, you need to first install hieroglyph on your computer:

easy_install hieroglyphy

and then make the slides with:

make slides

The slides are in the home directory, while the source is in the ./source/ subdirectory.

When this repository is pushed to the gh_pages branch of the FluPhylogeneticsModule GitHub repository, the slides will become available on GitHub Pages.

For example, a file named ./source/slides.rst will compile to slides.html with the make slides command, and after the pushing to the FluPhylogeneticsModule repository, the slides will be available for viewing at http://jbloom.github.io/FluPhylogeneticsModule/slides.html.
