Building Docs
The documentation for this JupyterHub deployment was completed using mkdocs, the mkdocs-material theme and deployed on GitHub pages.
The directory structure of the GitHub repo that houses the deployment files and docs looks like this:
.
├── LICENSE
├── README.md
├── docs
│ ├── docs
│ ├── mkdocs.yml
│ └── theme
├── etc
│ ├── jupyterhub
│ ├── nginx
│ └── systemd
└── opt
└── miniconda3
Inside the docs/ directory is another docs/ subdirectory with all of markdown files that make up the documentation. There is also a mkdocs yaml file in the docs/ directory. When calling mkdocs commands from the command line, you need to be in the folder with the mkdocs.yml file.

To build the docs locally, make sure you have Python installed (I use Anaconda). Start out by cloning the repo:
git clone https://github.com/ProfessorKazarinoff/jupyterhub-engr101.git
cd into the cloned repo, and create a virtual environment. Install the Python packages needed to build the docs.
cd jupyterhub-engr101.git
conda create -n jupyterhub python=3.7
conda activate jupyterhub
(jupyterhub) pip install -r requirements.txt
cd into the docs dir, and run mkdocs build and mkdocs serve
cd docs
ls
# mkdocs.yml
mkdocs build
mkdocs serve
Look at the built site on local host:
