The websim is hosted at https://www.pythonanywhere.com/, the free tier is sufficient.

Setting up the repo

Clone dl and then clone <yourusername>.github.io to /dl/www (for images), wwwsrc is not needed.

Setting up the Flask API

The API is contained in /app/app.py, follow instructions here: https://help.pythonanywhere.com/pages/Flask/ then modify the .bashrc with this line:

export ROOT_DIR=/dir/to/your/dl

Setting up the webapp

Create a new webapp on pythonanywhere, then under Static files, add the following paths:

URL	Directory
/dl-sim/	/dir/to/your/dl/www/dl-sim/
/ui/	/dir/to/your/dl/app/ui/

Then, edit APP_URL in dl/app/ui/dl_simc.js to point to the base URL of your account.
