Editing the Developer Documentation =================================== Setup on Debian *************** Install the following Debian packages: * python3-sphinx * python3-sphinx-autobuild If your preferred text editor doesn't have support for the reStructuredText format, you can install a simple desktop application called ReText. It has live preview support with split panes.
