How to contribute
-----------------
This guide is under heavy development. If you would like to contribute, please

How to test your changes
------------------------
The html version of this guide is built with [sphinx](http://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/stable/). You may test your revisions locally by having sphinx installed. You can do this easily with pip (as described in the link).
``` bash
pip install --user sphinx
```
Then navigate to the directory of the makefile and ```make build``` or ```make html```. Sphinx will then generate the html in a folder called _build/html
After navigating to this folder, you can then use python's built in webserver to view your changes locally:
``` bash
python3 -m http.server
```
By default, http.server listens on every ip address bound on your host on port 8000. To bind to a specific one, say, localhost on port 8005:
``` bash
python3 -m http.server 8005 --bind 127.0.0.1
```
