-# Getting started
-
-## Installation
-
-### Installing MkDocs
-
-Before installing [MkDocs][], you need to make sure you have Python and `pip`
-– the Python package manager – up and running. Assuming you are a developer and
-have a basic understanding of how things work and what StackOverflow is, we
-won't provide guidelines on setting those up. You can verify if you're already
-good to go with the following commands:
-
-``` sh
-python --version
-# Python 2.7.2
-pip --version
-# pip 1.5.2
-```
-
-Installing and verifying MkDocs is as simple as:
-
-``` sh
-pip install mkdocs && mkdocs --version
-# mkdocs, version 0.15.2
-```
-
-### Installing Material
-
-Next, assuming you have MkDocs up and running `mkdocs-material` can be
-installed with `pip`:
-
-``` sh
-pip install mkdocs-material
-```
-
-## Usage
-
-If you haven't already done it, creating a new documentation project is really
-simple in MkDocs:
-
-``` sh
-mkdocs new my-project
-cd my-project
-```
-
-MkDocs will create the necessary files and base directory structure inside the
-folder `my-project`. In order to enable the theme just add the following line
-to the auto-generated `mkdocs.yml`:
-
-``` yaml
-theme: 'material'
-```
-
-If your project is hosted on GitHub, add the repository link to the
-configuration. If the `repo_name` equals **GitHub**, the Material theme will
-add a download and star button, and display the number of stars:
-
-``` yaml
-repo_name: 'GitHub'
-repo_url: 'https://github.com/my-github-handle/my-project'
-```
-
-MkDocs includes a development server, so you can view your changes as you go -
-very handy. Spin it up with the following command:
-
-``` sh
-mkdocs serve
-```
-
-Now you can go to [localhost:8000](http://localhost:8000) and the Material
-theme should be visible. You can now start writing your documentation, or read
-on and customize the theme through some options.
-
-## Options
-
-The Material theme adds some extra variables for configuration via your
-project's `mkdocs.yml`. See the following section for all available options.
-
-### Adding a version
-
-In order to add the current version next to the project banner inside the
-drawer, you can set the variable `extra.version`:
-
-``` yaml
-extra:
- version: '0.1.0'
-```
-
-This will also change the link behind the download button to point to the
-archive with the respective version on GitHub, assuming a release tagged with
-this exact version identifier.
-
-### Adding a logo
-
-If your project has a logo, you can add it to the drawer/navigation by defining
-the variable `extra.logo`. Ideally, the image of your logo should have
-rectangular shape with a minimum resolution of 128x128 and leave some room
-towards the edges. The logo will also be used as a web application icon on iOS.
-Simply create the folder `docs/images`, add your image and reference it via:
-
-``` yaml
-extra:
- logo: 'images/logo.png'
-```
-
-### Link to GitHub releases page
-
-If your project has a GitHub url configured, the default behavior is that a
-downlink button is displayed, linking to the source download of the given
-`extra.version` or `master` branch. To link to the releases page instead,
-set `extra.github.download_release` to `true`. It will link to the release of
-the given `extra.version` or when no `extra.version` is given, the latest
-release:
-
-``` yaml
-repo_name: GitHub
-repo_url: https://github.com/squidfunk/mkdocs-material
-
-extra:
- github:
- download_release: true
-```
-
-
-### Changing the color palette
-
-Material defines a default hue for every primary and accent color on Google's
-material design [color palette][]. This makes it very easy to change the
-overall look of the theme. Just set the variables `extra.palette.primary` and
-`extra.palette.accent` to one of the colors defined in the palette:
-
-``` yaml
-extra:
- palette:
- primary: 'indigo'
- accent: 'light blue'
-```
-
-Color names can be written upper- or lowercase but must match the names of the
-material design [color palette][]. Valid values are: _red_, _pink_, _purple_,
-_deep purple_, _indigo_, _blue_, _light blue_, _cyan_, _teal_, _green_, _light
-green_, _lime_, _yellow_, _amber_, _orange_, _deep orange_, _brown_, _grey_ and
-_blue grey_. The last three colors can only be used as a primary color.
-
-![Material Screenshot](images/colors.png)
-
-If the color is set via this configuration, an additional CSS file called
-`palettes.css` is included that defines the color palettes. If you want to
-keep things lean, clone the repository and recompile the theme with your
-custom colors set. See [this article](customization.md) for more information.
-
-### Changing the font family
-
-Material uses the [Ubuntu font family][] by default, specifically the regular
-sans-serif type for text and the monospaced type for code. Both fonts are
-loaded from [Google Fonts][] and can be easily changed to other fonts, like for
-example Google's own [Roboto font][]:
-
-``` yaml
-extra:
- font:
- text: 'Roboto'
- code: 'Roboto Mono'
-```
-
-The text font will be loaded in font-weights 400 and **700**, the monospaced
-font in regular weight. If you want to load fonts from other destinations or
-don't want to use the Google Fonts loading magic, just set `extra.font` to
-`'none'`:
-
-``` yaml
-extra:
- font: 'none'
-```
-
-### Localization
-
-The **Previous** and **Next** labels in the footer can easily be changed by
-defining the variables `extra.i18n.prev` and `extra.i18n.next`:
-
-``` yaml
-extra:
- i18n:
- prev: 'Previous'
- next: 'Next'
-```
-
-### Adding a GitHub and Twitter account
-
-If you have a GitHub and/or Twitter account, you can add links to your
-accounts to the drawer by setting the variables `extra.author.github` and
-`extra.author.twitter` respectively:
-
-``` yaml
-extra:
- author:
- github: 'my-github-handle'
- twitter: 'my-twitter-handle'
-```
-
-### Google Analytics integration
-
-Material makes it easy to integrate site tracking with Google Analytics.
-Besides basic tracking, clicks on all outgoing links can be tracked, clicks on
-the download and star button, as well as how site search is used. Tracking can
-be activated in your project's `mkdocs.yml`:
-
-``` yaml
-google_analytics:
- - 'UA-XXXXXXXX-X'
- - 'auto'
-```
-
-### More advanced customization
-
-If you want to change the general appearance of the Material theme, see
-[this article](customization.md) for more information on advanced customization.
-
-## Extensions
-
-MkDocs supports several [Markdown extensions][]. The following extensions are
-not enabled by default (see the link for which are enabled by default), so you
-have to switch them on explicitly.
-
-### CodeHilite (recommended)
-
-This extensions uses [Pygments][] (install with `pip install pygments`) to add
-code highlighting to fenced code blocks. It might not be the best code
-highlighter, but it works without JavaScript and on the server:
-
-``` yaml
-markdown_extensions:
- - codehilite(css_class=code)
-```
-
-If you want more extensive highlighting, you can use a JavaScript library like
-[highlight.js][], which is not included in Material. See [this link][extra] for
-further instructions
-
-### Permalinks
-
-In order to add [permalinks][] to the headers of your article, set the
-`markdown_extensions.toc.permalink` variable to a symbol, e.g. `#`:
-
-``` yaml
-markdown_extensions:
- - toc:
- permalink: '#'
-```
-
-The symbol can be chosen freely, it can even be a WebFont icon.
-
-### Admonition
-
-[Admonition][] is a handy extension that adds block-styled side content to your
-documentation, for example hints, notes or warnings. It can be enabled by
-setting the variable `markdown_extensions.admonition`:
-
-``` yaml
-markdown_extensions:
- - admonition
-```
-
-In order to add a note, use the following syntax inside your article:
-
-``` markdown
-!!! note
- Nothing to see here, move along.
-```
-
-This will print the following block:
-
-!!! note
- Nothing to see here, move along.
-
-The Material template adds a neutral color for the `note` class and a red color
-for the `warning` class. You can also add a custom title:
-
-``` markdown
-!!! warning "Don't try this at home"
- If you do, you will regret it.
-```
-
-This will print:
-
-!!! warning "Don't try this at home"
- If you do, you will regret it.
-
-More colors can be freely defined.
-
