BIOE 205 Course Website

This is the repository for the Spring 2023 offering of BIOE 205 at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. This repository is structured as a Franklin website/project. Please take a look at an explanation of the folder structure.

Usage

To use this repository; git clone it to your local device. Then from the repository (cd into it) run

julia --project=.

to start a Julia REPL within the repository. Of course this assumes you have a functioning installation of Julia that can be called from the command line/terminal..

In the Julia prompt running:

> using Franklin
> serve()

will open a webpage with a live development preview of the course website. For information on how to edit and publish the website see the linked documentation.

Note: For all the pictures/plots/figures used in the Website to be generated it is necessary to run the file:

./_assets/lectures/generate_results.jl

using Julia.

Spring 2023

For Spring 2023 the website is hosted over at Grainger Course Websites. Other web hosting options are available as listed here but our choice permits greatest flexibility and compatibility with the Franklin workflow.

To get started, see this resource. For hosting on the courses.grainger.illinois.edu website; the typical usage is to copy contents of the __site/ folder obtained after running optimize() from the REPL using your favourite sftp tool (e.g. FileZilla, CyberDuck etc.) to the particular term/semester:

sftp.courses.grainger.illinois.edu/courses/bioe205/<term>

TODO Items

• Add search functionality with lunr.
• Set up Literate as discussed here so we can eventually turn this to well-indexed website (e.g. like this example).
