The Sphinx Book Theme¶
An interactive book theme for Sphinx.
This is a lightweight Sphinx theme designed to mimic the look-and-feel of an interactive book. It has the following primary features:
Bootstrap 4 for visual elements and functionality.
Flexible content layout that is inspired by beautiful online books, such as the Edward Tufte CSS guide
Visual classes designed for Jupyter Notebooks. Cell inputs, outputs, and interactive functionality are all supported.
Launch buttons for online interactivity. For pages that are built with computational material, connect your site to an online BinderHub for interactive content.
