Details on how to add/change content

Formulars

You can also use MathJax to include latex formulars in your code. The following example shows the code you would create as well as its rendered version:

When $a \ne 0$, there are two solutions to $ax^2 + bx + c = 0$ and they are
$$x = {-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} \over 2a}.$$

When $a \ne 0$, there are two solutions to $ax^2 + bx + c = 0$ and they are $$x = {-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} \over 2a}.$$

Change a page

To change the content of software.html, open the file software.md in your favorite text editor and modify the content as you like.

Add a new page

To add a new page, copy the file index.md to newpage.md and change the title tag at the top of the file. You can now reference this page by adding links to newpage.html.

Add a new publication

Publications are added by modifying the Publications.bib file. The publications page is automatically derived from this tex file. To cite a publication that is part of the Publications.bib file, just add <a class="citation">QUILLERE00</a> to any page. This will create the following citation QUILLERE00.

Write a blog entry

Blog entries are normal pages stored in the folder _posts and using the naming convention yyyy-mm-dd-page-title.md. They automatically show up in the newest post list.
