Nightly builds - http://dtscode.io/~lysa/develop/

The Book

This is a math book. We aim to take a logically rigorous, yet informal approach to math. You can see the source for the book in the book/ directory.

Builds

Nightly builds are available at develop/. Releases are available at master/. As of now, there are no releases.

For more details on the build system, refer to the guide to contributing.

To build the project from source, you'll need most of the TeXLive packages.

For a list of dependencies, refer to our guide to contributing on software.

git clone https://github.com/learnmath/book.git -b develop
cd book/book
./build

The build script is not dangerous, you can look at it if you want. It builds the book, and generates it into a file called book.pdf in the book/ directory. If you have a slow computer, it might take about 30 seconds or so to build. On a fast computer, it will take less than a second. We don't include the PDF file in the git tree because it's a binary file, and thus causes merge conflicts if we try to track it.
