Let’s say you have a long trip and you want to use it to teach yourself some shaders. In that case you can make a local copy of this book on your computer and run a local server.
For that you only need Python 2.6 and a git client. On MacOS and RaspberryPi computers Python is installed by default but you still need to install a git client. For that:
In MacOSX be sure to have homebrew installed and then on your terminal do:
brew update
brew upgrade
brew install git On RaspberryPi you need to do:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install git-coreOnce you have everything installed you just need to do:
cd ~
git clone https://github.com/patriciogonzalezvivo/thebookofshaders.git
cd thebookofshaders
python -m SimpleHTTPServerThen open your browser to http://localhost:8000/
