Academic is designed to give technical content creators a seamless experience. You can focus on the content and Academic handles the rest.
|
||||
|
||||
**Highlight your code snippets, take notes on math classes, and draw diagrams from textual representation.**
|
||||
|
||||
On this page, you'll find some examples of the types of technical content that can be rendered with Academic.
|
||||
|
||||
## Examples
|
||||
|
||||
### Code
|
||||
|
||||
Academic supports a Markdown extension for highlighting code syntax. You can enable this feature by toggling the `highlight` option in your `config/_default/params.toml` file.
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
import pandas as pd
|
||||
data = pd.read_csv("data.csv")
|
||||
data.head()
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
renders as
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
import pandas as pd
|
||||
data = pd.read_csv("data.csv")
|
||||
data.head()
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Charts
|
||||
|
||||
Academic supports the popular [Plotly](https://plot.ly/) chart format.
|
||||
|
||||
Save your Plotly JSON in your page folder, for example `chart.json`, and then add the `{{</* chart data="chart" */>}}` shortcode where you would like the chart to appear.
|
||||
|
||||
Demo:
|
||||
|
||||
{{< chart data="line-chart" >}}
|
||||
|
||||
You might also find the [Plotly JSON Editor](http://plotly-json-editor.getforge.io/) useful.
|
||||
|
||||
### Math
|
||||
|
||||
Academic supports a Markdown extension for $\LaTeX$ math. You can enable this feature by toggling the `math` option in your `config/_default/params.toml` file.
|
||||
|
||||
To render *inline* or *block* math, wrap your LaTeX math with `$...$` or `$$...$$`, respectively.
|
||||
|
||||
Example **math block**:
|
||||
|
||||
```latex
|
||||
$$\gamma_{n} = \frac{
|
||||
\left | \left (\mathbf x_{n} - \mathbf x_{n-1} \right )^T
|
||||
\left [\nabla F (\mathbf x_{n}) - \nabla F (\mathbf x_{n-1}) \right ] \right |}
|
||||
{\left \|\nabla F(\mathbf{x}_{n}) - \nabla F(\mathbf{x}_{n-1}) \right \|^2}$$
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
renders as
|
||||
|
||||
$$\gamma_{n} = \frac{ \left | \left (\mathbf x_{n} - \mathbf x_{n-1} \right )^T \left [\nabla F (\mathbf x_{n}) - \nabla F (\mathbf x_{n-1}) \right ] \right |}{\left \|\nabla F(\mathbf{x}_{n}) - \nabla F(\mathbf{x}_{n-1}) \right \|^2}$$
|
||||
|
||||
Example **inline math** `$\nabla F(\mathbf{x}_{n})$` renders as $\nabla F(\mathbf{x}_{n})$.
|
||||
|
||||
Example **multi-line math** using the `\\\\` math linebreak:
|
||||
|
||||
```latex
|
||||
$$f(k;p_0^*) = \begin{cases} p_0^* & \text{if }k=1, \\\\
|
||||
1-p_0^* & \text {if }k=0.\end{cases}$$
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
renders as
|
||||
|
||||
$$f(k;p_0^*) = \begin{cases} p_0^* & \text{if }k=1, \\\\
|
||||
1-p_0^* & \text {if }k=0.\end{cases}$$
|
||||
|
||||
### Diagrams
|
||||
|
||||
Academic supports a Markdown extension for diagrams. You can enable this feature by toggling the `diagram` option in your `config/_default/params.toml` file or by adding `diagram: true` to your page front matter.
|
||||
|
||||
An example **flowchart**:
|
||||
|
||||
```mermaid
|
||||
graph TD
|
||||
A[Hard] -->|Text| B(Round)
|
||||
B --> C{Decision}
|
||||
C -->|One| D[Result 1]
|
||||
C -->|Two| E[Result 2]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
renders as
|
||||
|
||||
```mermaid
|
||||
graph TD
|
||||
A[Hard] -->|Text| B(Round)
|
||||
B --> C{Decision}
|
||||
C -->|One| D[Result 1]
|
||||
C -->|Two| E[Result 2]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
An example **sequence diagram**:
|
||||
|
||||
```mermaid
|
||||
sequenceDiagram
|
||||
Alice->>John: Hello John, how are you?
|
||||
loop Healthcheck
|
||||
John->>John: Fight against hypochondria
|
||||
end
|
||||
Note right of John: Rational thoughts!
|
||||
John-->>Alice: Great!
|
||||
John->>Bob: How about you?
|
||||
Bob-->>John: Jolly good!
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
renders as
|
||||
|
||||
```mermaid
|
||||
sequenceDiagram
|
||||
Alice->>John: Hello John, how are you?
|
||||
loop Healthcheck
|
||||
John->>John: Fight against hypochondria
|
||||
end
|
||||
Note right of John: Rational thoughts!
|
||||
John-->>Alice: Great!
|
||||
John->>Bob: How about you?
|
||||
Bob-->>John: Jolly good!
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
An example **Gantt diagram**:
|
||||
|
||||
```mermaid
|
||||

```
|
||||
|
||||
An example **state diagram**:
|
||||
|
||||
```mermaid
|
||||

|
||||
[*] --> Still
|
||||
Still --> [*]
|
||||
Still --> Moving
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
renders as
|
||||
|
||||
```mermaid
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||

||||
Moving --> Crash
|
||||

|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Todo lists
|
||||
|
||||
You can even write your todo lists in Academic too:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
- [x] Write math example
|
||||
- [x] Write diagram example
|
||||
- [ ] Do something else
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
renders as
|
||||
|
||||
- [x] Write math example
|
||||
- [x] Write diagram example
|
||||
- [ ] Do something else
|
||||
|
||||
### Tables
|
||||
|
||||
Represent your data in tables:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
| First Header | Second Header |
|
||||
| ------------- | ------------- |
|
||||
| Content Cell | Content Cell |
|
||||
| Content Cell | Content Cell |
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
renders as
|
||||
|
||||
| First Header | Second Header |
|
||||
| ------------- | ------------- |
|
||||
| Content Cell | Content Cell |
|
||||
| Content Cell | Content Cell |
|
||||
|
||||
### Callouts
|
||||
|
||||
Academic supports a [shortcode for callouts](https://sourcethemes.com/academic/docs/writing-markdown-latex/#alerts), also referred to as *asides*, *hints*, or *alerts*. By wrapping a paragraph in `{{%/* alert note */%}} ... {{%/* /alert */%}}`, it will render as an aside.
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
{{%/* alert note */%}}
|
||||
A Markdown aside is useful for displaying notices, hints, or definitions to your readers.
|
||||
{{%/* /alert */%}}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
renders as
|
||||
|
||||
{{% alert note %}}
|
||||
A Markdown aside is useful for displaying notices, hints, or definitions to your readers.
|
||||
{{% /alert %}}
|
||||
|
||||
### Spoilers
|
||||
|
||||
Add a spoiler to a page to reveal text, such as an answer to a question, after a button is clicked.
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
{{</* spoiler text="Click to view the spoiler" */>}}
|
||||
You found me!
|
||||
{{</* /spoiler */>}}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
renders as
|
||||
|
||||
{{< spoiler text="Click to view the spoiler" >}} You found me! {{< /spoiler >}}
|
||||
|
||||
### Icons
|
||||
|
||||
Academic enables you to use a wide range of [icons from _Font Awesome_ and _Academicons_](https://sourcethemes.com/academic/docs/page-builder/#icons) in addition to [emojis](https://sourcethemes.com/academic/docs/writing-markdown-latex/#emojis).
|
||||
|
||||
Here are some examples using the `icon` shortcode to render icons:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
{{</* icon name="terminal" pack="fas" */>}} Terminal
|
||||
{{</* icon name="python" pack="fab" */>}} Python
|
||||
{{</* icon name="r-project" pack="fab" */>}} R
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
renders as
|
||||
|
||||
{{< icon name="terminal" pack="fas" >}} Terminal
|
||||
{{< icon name="python" pack="fab" >}} Python
|
||||
{{< icon name="r-project" pack="fab" >}} R
