Here is a complete programme (in progress):

• https://wit-hdip-comp-sci-2018.github.io

Here is a course on using tutors:

• https://wit-tutors.github.io/tutors-course

It is for a previous version - so some details have changed a little. The course was developed using tutors - the course 'source' is here:

• https://github.com/wit-tutors/tutors-course-src

Quick Start

Make sure you have node.js installed.

• https://nodejs.org/en/

Normally the LTS version would be the most suitable. You should also have git installed:

• https://git-scm.com/

Once these are installed, enter this command:

npm install tutors-ts -g

This will install the tutors command globally on your workstation. Now, to create a starter template course, enter this command:

tutors-ts --new

This will create a new course, populated with some template talks, resources and labs. To build the course, enter the following:

cd tutors-starter-0

tutors-ts

A folder called './public-site-uk' will be generated containing a html site of the course.

You could also identify a course this portfolio:

• http://edeleastar.github.io

The source repos for the above courses are here:

• https://github.com/edeleastar-portfolio

Any repo with a 'src' suffix is a 'source' repo for tutors-ts. If you clone it and run `tutors-ts' in the cloned folder the site will be generated in 'public-site-uk'
