PreTeXt - nuts and bolts (tutorial, 55min)

Abstract: PreTeXt (PTX, at pretextbook.org) is an open source book and article authoring tool with support for interactive Sage cells that enhance any book. In this presentation, we will get a little deeper into the structure and details of how to use PTX with math. Bring a text editor and a command line with the tool "xsltproc" installed (see pretextbook.org/quickstart.html - using CoCalc is one good option). Note that PTX, while quite stable, is a quickly-evolving project trying to use the best of the internet and computation, so that it is possible that new features, added between when this abstract is written and the time of presentation, might be demoed!
