Meta issue on creating documentation

[betatim]

We will create a clean, new, simple example repository (the course-starter repo) that people can use to start a new course. It will contain:

• two or three simple notebooks/assignments that show off how to create private/public tests, different points per assignment
• explanation of what can and can't be in different cells (depending on what tag they have)
• markdown explanation of how to create tests, comments, stuff
• annotated but with gaps config.yml that will be filled out by readers when they follow the quick start

---

Create a way to have a "dummy-student" directory locally that you can "distribute" to and then "grade". It would allow the instructor to pretend to be a student, attempt the assignment, see what the assigned grade is.

---

There will be a quick start guide (hackmd to get going) to walk people through the process of creating a new class based on the quick start repository.

• will walk reader through the process of starting from the course-starter repo and end with them having a fully working course
• instructions for simulating the grading/rendering of the student notebook

---

This quick start guide will be part of the documentation (RTDs) that is in this repository.

---

There will be additional documentation about the components in this repository as well.
