# Lubuntu Manual Source Code
This is the Lubuntu Manual source code. The concept was derived from [the Kubuntu Manual](https://github.com/ahoneybun/kubuntu-manual). The master branch of this data is now on LXQt for Lubuntu 18.10+ and if you want code for earlier versions it is on the LXDE branch.
## How it works
The documentation is powered by [Sphinx](http://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/stable/) and is written in reStructuredText.
Run the following command to install the needed dependencies:
```
sudo apt install python3-pip python3-sphinx latexmk texlive texlive-formats-extra arcanist python3-sphinx-rtd-theme && git clone https://github.com/sphinxcontrib-versioning-ng/sphinxcontrib-versioning
```
You can see the options for building the documentation by running `make help`. You can make the html version by running `make html`. You can make a pdf version of the lubuntu manual with `make latexpdf`. If you just want to check for warnings or errors building run `make dummy`.
## Contributing
To contribute to the Lubuntu Manual, you can either create a request on Launchpad, or send patch mail to [lubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com](mailto:lubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com) and prefix the subject with `[Lubuntu Manual Pull Request]`.
