Emathbooks

What?

This repository contains three different types of empty ebooks: authorbook, studentbook and teacherbook.

Authorbook is a version used to write textbooks and needs connection to a authorserver.

Studentbook and teacherbook are coursebooks for students and teachers respectively.

Each of these contains one html-file (the book itself), mathquill-directory and data-directory. The html-file contains the ebook reading system, but not any coursebook.

These books are not useful as such, since they don't include any coursebook content and they don't have connection to any course management system (or author system) at a server.

These files however can be used, if one wants to study, how the system works.

How?

The system is basically a TiddlyWiki file with some added functionality.
