This repository hosts the course website and slides for BIMS 8601 Foundations of Computational Genomics.
Course information is populated from _data/course_information.yaml
The lecture table is populated from _data/lectures.yaml. Update that to make changes. You can add external links to a particular lecture by adding a new item under links, with a url and title.
Slides are saved in the slides folder. Each presentation is a single html file, which is served using reveal.js. You can write slides in markdown. For example, slides/k-mer-analysis.html is written in reveal markdown. You can also mix-and-match markdown and base reveal slides. The trick is: 1. use layout: reveal_markdown in the yaml frontmatter, and 2. the file extension should be .html, not .md... because otherwise jekyll will consume the markdown and convert it to HTML, but that's not what we want; we want it to stay as markdown for reveal to parse.
If you want to render the page locally to develop slides, just clone the repository and serve it with:
jekyll serve
