Write your first package using literate programming

Literate programming is a programming paradigm that incorporates explanations in natural language embedded with traditional code. This tutorial will show attendees how to get the benefits of literate programming while also following software development best practices. We'll get hands-on experience in writing and publishing a Python Package while using Jupyter Notebooks. In addition to publishing the package, we'll also learn how to deploy the docs, run simple tests and run these tests on CI/CD, making sure that our package will only get published if the tests pass.

Even though this tutorial uses Jupyter Notebooks and Nbdev the student doesn't need previous knowledge of these tools. A simple computer with Python and pip installed is all we'll use. Students should have some minimal Python knowledge and Git experience (Simple commands like push, pull, add and commit). A GitHub account will also be necessary.
