# Developing the Workshop

The workshop is written in
[reStructuredText (rst)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ReStructuredText) and
[generated using Sphinx](https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/).

It is hosted on [Read The Docs](http://readthedocs.org/) and currently uses the
[Material Design style](https://material.io/) developed by Google through
[a slightly custom version of the `sphinx_materialdesign_theme` package](http://github.com/SymbiFlow/sphinx_materialdesign_theme).

It uses the [`sphinxcontrib-session` extension](https://github.com/mithro/sphinxcontrib-session)
to properly highlight the example sessions and to allow copying only the
session lines.

Other sphinx extensions which are used include;

- [`sphinxcontrib-hdl-diagrams`](http://sphinxcontrib-hdl-diagrams.rtfd.io/) to
  generate nice diagrams from Verilog examples.
- [`sphinx-wavedrom`](https://github.com/bavovanachte/sphinx-wavedrom) to
  generate [nice waveform diagrams](http://wavedrom.com/). `sphinxcontrib-wavedrom`?
- [`symbolator`](https://kevinpt.github.io/symbolator/) to generate block level
  diagrams from Verilog examples.
- [`sphinx_tabs`](https://github.com/djungelorm/sphinx-tabs) to support tabs
  for different Linux / Windows / Mac OS X instructions.
