Handbook of Automation for BEng & Master’s projects USing PYTHON

We create resources to help students combine reproducible research, software engineering with CI automation, and high-quality, code-based typesetting. Our practical examples show how to use the “executable manuscripts” approach (see, e.g., Perkel 2022, Nature).

Write it. Run it. Share it. Engineer your documents to be reproducible, automated, and aesthetic by design!
